Also you should consider if the solution choosed by you gives you the output you want in landscape mode (not only in portrait). For example, a font size that works in portrait maybe is not so good in landscape mode (that is, if your solution is based on text). I'm not saying that you must avoid "text" (many of my title pages are pure text) but you must consider all the variables. And since you are working on epub3, maybe it could be a good idea to set font sizes based on "vw", not "em" (on title pages, of course).

And, besides the solutions posted above, you can also consider a svg image, that is a different thing that a .jpg or .png inside a svg wrapper.
