Can someone help me find a font style for the title of my Wall of Women project?

I have printed out 8x10 sized images of women immortalized by great artists such as Leonardo, Botticelli, Rembrandt , Klimt, Goya, Bernini, Ringgold, Sherald, and others, 28 in all (and 4 are photos by great photographers such as Annie Liebowitz and Dorothea Lange.).

There is space right in the middle of the layout for my title: AND STILL I RISE and I can print out the sign on an 8 1/2 x 14 sheet of paper. But I need a font that fits the style of the project. Not too fancy, but distinctive.

If you could show the font you recommend it would be great!

Thank you for your help!

I made a display of different music technologies for my vintage booth and put a little sign up: Music Through the Ages. I wanted a distinctive font that reflected the advances in technology from Edison rolls to CDs. It was easy to add the font to Libre, the word processor I use

Glad this site was a suggestion for CTYankee's project

which is legible and distinctive, I look for fonts which have "Becker" in the name. And there are many. All distinctive. I wouldn't point to any one in particular..
