A robust serif with bracketed serifs and a relatively low-to-moderate contrast between thick and thin strokes. The letterforms are broad and steady, with generous counters and rounded joins that keep the texture even at larger sizes. Serifs are compact and well integrated rather than hairline or slab-like, and many terminals show a slightly softened, sculpted finish that reads as sturdy and composed. Overall spacing and rhythm favor a solid, continuous color suited to setting dense text.
Works well for editorial typography—magazine features, book titles, and section heads—where a sturdy serif can deliver clarity and gravitas. It can also serve as a primary text face for short-to-medium passages, especially when a darker, more assertive page color is desired. Suitable for branding and institutional materials that benefit from a conventional, trustworthy typographic voice.
The tone is traditional and editorial, projecting authority and permanence without feeling delicate. Its broad stance and confident serifs suggest institutional reliability—appropriate for serious, established voices rather than playful or experimental ones.
Likely designed as a conventional serif optimized for strong readability and a commanding presence, balancing classic construction with slightly softened detailing to maintain warmth and continuity in text.
The sample text shows a strong headline presence with clear word shapes and a stable baseline; the figures and capitals carry the same weighty, formal character as the lowercase. The overall impression is of a classic text serif drawn with extra mass and smooth, controlled detailing.
