A robust serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and clearly bracketed serifs. Stems are sturdy and vertical, while joins and curves show controlled, calligraphic influence, with rounded terminals appearing on several lowercase forms. The lowercase has open counters and a steady rhythm, and the capitals are broad-shouldered with confident proportions and strong horizontals. Numerals appear text-oriented with varied widths and a slightly oldstyle feel, contributing to an organic, bookish texture in running copy.
This face is well suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, and book-cover titling where a strong serif voice is desirable. It can also support short passages of text at comfortable sizes, especially in print-oriented layouts that benefit from a rich typographic color.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, projecting authority and polish without feeling fragile. Its strong contrast and generous forms create a confident, slightly dramatic presence suited to formal or literary settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text-serif structure with added impact through strong contrast and assertive proportions. It balances traditional, book-type cues with a heavier, more display-capable presence for contemporary editorial use.
In the sample text, the weight and contrast produce a dark, emphatic color that reads best with comfortable line spacing and moderate measure. The character set shown emphasizes stable, conventional letterforms with a few warmer, softer details in the lowercase terminals.
