A heavy, high-contrast serif with broad proportions and a steady, upright stance. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation, with tapered transitions and bracketed serifs that soften the joins into the stems. Counters are relatively compact for the weight, while curves (C, O, S) stay smooth and controlled, giving a dense but readable texture. The lowercase is sturdy with rounded shoulders and ball-like terminals on letters such as a and c, and the numerals read as oldstyle figures with varied heights and a more text-oriented rhythm.
Well suited to headlines and deck copy where a bold, traditional serif presence is needed. It can also work for editorial settings such as magazine features and book-cover typography, especially when a dense, authoritative texture and classic detailing are desirable.
The overall tone is formal and confident, with a classic print sensibility that feels established and trustworthy. Its weight and contrast add drama, while the traditional serif detailing keeps it grounded and familiar.
The design appears aimed at delivering a classic, print-forward serif voice with added impact—pairing traditional bracketed serifs and high contrast with broad proportions to hold attention in display and editorial contexts.
In text, the font produces a dark, even color with clear vertical emphasis and strong word shapes, aided by prominent serifs and compact apertures. The combination of wide capitals and energetic oldstyle numerals adds a slightly literary, poster-like character even at paragraph scale.
