A high-contrast serif with broad proportions and crisp, wedge-like serifs that often flare out from the stems. Thick verticals and hairline-like connecting strokes create a pronounced black-and-white rhythm, with sharp triangular joins and occasional teardrop-like terminals. Curves are full and sculpted, and the overall spacing feels generous, giving the letterforms a strong, poster-friendly presence while maintaining a traditional serif construction.
Best suited to headlines and short display settings where its contrast and flared serif details can be appreciated. It works well for magazine titles, book covers, cultural posters, and branding that aims for a classic yet forceful voice. In longer passages it will read most comfortably at larger sizes where the fine strokes and sharp terminals remain clear.
The tone is theatrical and emphatic, with a stately, old-world flavor that reads as premium and attention-grabbing. Its sharp serifs and dramatic contrast add a sense of ceremony and intensity, lending a slightly baroque, display-oriented character.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice amplified for display use: wide, sculptural forms paired with dramatic contrast and flared, wedge-like serifs to create impact and elegance at the same time.
In the sample text, the heavy vertical stress and pointed serifs create a lively texture, especially in mixed-case lines where counters and terminals produce distinctive, spiky silhouettes. Numerals and capitals carry a particularly monumental feel, while the lowercase maintains the same high-contrast logic with clear, sculpted bowls and tapered joins.
