This is a robust serif with strong vertical stress, pronounced thick–thin modulation, and firmly bracketed serifs. Strokes terminate in crisp, slightly flared feet and head serifs, while curves are full and smoothly drawn, producing dense counters and a steady texture. Uppercase forms are broad and weighty with confident horizontals; lowercase shows compact proportions with sturdy joins and a relatively traditional construction. Numerals appear oldstyle in character with substantial weight and clear, conventional shapes that sit comfortably in text.
Well suited to editorial design, headlines, and typographic branding where a traditional serif voice and strong emphasis are desired. It can also serve for book or long-form text when set with adequate leading and not pushed too small, maintaining a solid, confident texture.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, evoking traditional book and newspaper typography. Its heavy presence and crisp finishing lend a serious, institutional voice while still feeling familiar and readable rather than decorative.
The design appears intended as a conventional, workhorse text serif with heightened presence—balancing traditional letterforms and bracketed serifs with a heavier, more assertive color for impactful reading and display use.
In the sample text the face holds a dark color and stable rhythm across long lines, with clear word shapes and consistent serif behavior that reinforces horizontal flow. The strong contrast and tight internal spaces suggest it benefits from comfortable line spacing and moderate sizes where counters can breathe.
