A robust serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and crisp, bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a moderately vertical axis and a compact, sturdy build, with rounded joins and slightly sculpted curves that keep counters open in the heavier weight. Terminals frequently resolve into soft teardrops or ball-like finishes (notably on lowercase forms), while horizontals and serifs stay clean and sharply cut. Overall spacing reads even and controlled, producing a steady text rhythm despite the strong contrast.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where contrast and serif detail can be appreciated. It can also serve for book and magazine typography, particularly for titles, chapter openers, and other editorial moments that benefit from a confident, classical voice. For branding, it fits heritage-leaning identities that want refinement with strong typographic presence.
The tone is traditional and authoritative, with an editorial seriousness that feels suited to established institutions and print-driven design. Its sharp serifs and high-contrast strokes give it a dignified, somewhat dramatic presence, while the rounded terminals add a hint of warmth rather than austerity.
Likely drawn to deliver a conventional, old-world serif impression with enough contrast and terminal character to stand out in editorial settings. The design prioritizes a confident, readable rhythm and a sense of crafted detail that supports premium, print-oriented typography.
The numerals and capitals feel display-capable due to their weight and contrast, while the lowercase maintains legibility through relatively open apertures and clear differentiation between shapes. The ‘Q’ features a prominent, sweeping tail and several letters exhibit energetic, slightly calligraphic finishing details that add character in larger sizes.
