A sturdy serif with flared, wedge-like terminals and softly bracketed joins that give the strokes a carved, inscriptional feel. Curves are full and round, counters are moderately open, and the overall rhythm is dense and compact, especially in text. The serif treatment is consistent across caps and lowercase, with broad shoulders and stable verticals that keep shapes crisp at display sizes while remaining readable in longer lines.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, and short blocks of copy in editorial layouts, book jackets, and institutional or heritage branding. It also performs nicely for posters and promotional materials where a classic, assertive serif voice is desired, and for numeric-heavy callouts that need strong emphasis.
The tone is traditional and authoritative, with a classic print flavor that feels established and trustworthy. Its flared endings add a subtle historic and collegiate character—more ceremonial than neutral—without becoming overly decorative.
Likely designed to deliver a classic serif voice with added warmth and presence through flared terminals and sturdy proportions. The intent appears to balance traditional print credibility with display-level impact, creating a versatile face for titles and editorial typography.
Capitals read with strong presence and relatively even proportions, while lowercase forms maintain a conventional structure and clear differentiation (notably in a, g, and e). Numerals are weighty and prominent, suited to headlines and callouts where figures need to stand out.
