A compact serif with flared, wedge-like terminals that broaden at the ends of stems, giving the letterforms an inscriptional, carved feel. Strokes read as largely even in weight with modest modulation, while the serifs and terminals provide most of the visual contrast and shaping. Counters are relatively tight and the overall fit is dense, with sturdy verticals and crisp, angular joins in letters like N, M, and W. The lowercase maintains a conventional structure with a two-storey a, a compact e, and a sturdy t, and the numerals share the same firm, slightly angular finish.
Well suited to headlines and subheads where a compact, authoritative serif texture is desired, and to editorial applications such as magazines or book covers where a traditional tone supports the content. The pronounced flared terminals can also work effectively in posters, title treatments, and select branding contexts that aim for a classic, established voice.
The font conveys a traditional, authoritative tone with an old-style editorial character. Its flared terminals and compact rhythm suggest formality and permanence, lending a dignified, bookish voice rather than a casual or playful one.
Likely designed to blend classical serif proportions with an inscriptional, flared-terminal finish that adds presence without relying on high stroke modulation. The intention appears to be a strong, compact text-and-display serif that maintains legibility while projecting a formal, enduring character.
Uppercase forms feel especially monument-like, with pronounced tapering into wedges at the tops and bottoms that adds a subtle sense of chiseling. The dense spacing and firm serifs make the texture darker and more assertive in paragraph settings, while the angular terminals help keep edges crisp in display use.
