A robust serif with pronounced stroke modulation and strongly bracketed serifs that often terminate in beak-like points. The letterforms feel broad and generously proportioned, with open counters and a steady, upright construction. Curves and joins are sculpted rather than mechanical, giving bowls and shoulders a slightly calligraphic tension. Numerals and capitals carry substantial weight and clear silhouette definition, maintaining a consistent rhythm across text and display sizes.
Well suited to editorial headlines, book-cover typography, and branded print where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also work for short to medium passages in magazines or programs when a dense, authoritative texture is acceptable, and for packaging or signage that benefits from strong, classic letterforms.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with a bookish, editorial character. Its sharp, beaked details add a hint of old-style gravitas, while the strong contrast and broad shapes keep it confident and attention-holding. The result feels formal and established rather than casual or minimalist.
Likely drawn to provide a conventional serif foundation with added drama through strong contrast and sharp, beaked terminals. The design emphasizes sturdy presence and clear silhouettes, aiming to balance readable text structure with headline-level impact.
In the sample text, the heavier color and crisp serif terminals produce a strong typographic presence and clear word shapes, especially in capitals and headline-sized settings. The pointed serifs and tapered strokes create lively texture, but the mass and contrast keep the page color dark and assertive.
