A robust serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, bracketed wedge serifs, and a slightly calligraphic feel in the way curves swell into stems. The capitals are broad and steady with crisp, sculpted terminals, while the lowercase shows fuller bowls and subtle ball/teardrop endings on letters like a, c, e, and f. Counters are relatively tight and joins are firm, giving the face a dense, weighty texture on the page. Numerals read as oldstyle in proportion, with varied heights and lively curves that match the text rhythm.
Works well for editorial settings such as magazine features, book typography, and pull quotes where a firm, traditional serif voice is desired. The weight and contrast also suit headlines, covers, and packaging that benefit from a strong, classic presence.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, evoking traditional book typography and established editorial design. Its strong contrast and sculpted serifs add a stately, slightly dramatic presence suited to serious, confident messaging.
Likely drawn to deliver a conventional text-serif foundation with added punch: a familiar bookish structure reinforced by heavier strokes, sharp serifs, and lively oldstyle numerals for a distinctive, print-forward texture.
The rhythm is energetic for a conventional serif: diagonals and curves (notably in S, C, G, and y) carry a gentle flare that keeps large sizes expressive. At text sizes the dense color and tighter apertures emphasize impact over airiness.
