This is a high-contrast serif with crisp bracketed serifs and a strongly vertical stress. Curves tighten into thin hairlines, while main stems and bowls stay notably weighty, giving the design a sharp, engraved feel. The proportions are fairly classical: capitals are wide and steady, lowercase shows moderate x-height with pronounced ascenders and compact, sturdy counters. Terminals are clean and often slightly beaked, and the overall rhythm is even and disciplined, with clear differentiation between letters in both cases.
It suits headlines, magazine and newspaper-style editorial typography, book and chapter titles, and formal branding where a classic serif voice is desired. It can also work for short passages and pull quotes when set with comfortable size and spacing to accommodate the pronounced contrast.
The font reads as formal and traditional, with an editorial seriousness suited to established institutions and print-driven design. Its sharp contrast and crisp finishing details convey authority and refinement rather than softness or playfulness.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, print-oriented serif tone with heightened contrast for presence and elegance. Its consistent serif treatment and structured proportions suggest a focus on clarity and authority in editorial and institutional contexts.
The numerals appear lining and sturdy, matching the heavy vertical stems and refined hairlines of the letters. In text, the strong contrast and compact counters create a dark, confident color on the page, making it particularly impactful at display and larger text sizes.
