A robust serif with strong vertical stress and clearly bracketed serifs. Strokes show pronounced contrast, with thick stems and tapered joins, producing crisp triangular and wedge-like terminals in places. Counters are relatively tight and the overall rhythm is steady and upright, with slightly condensed-feeling inner space despite generous width. Lowercase forms are sturdy and compact, with firm shoulders and minimal calligraphic flourish; numerals and capitals share the same weighty, high-impact presence.
Performs especially well in headlines, subheads, and display settings where its dense color and contrast can create strong hierarchy. It can also support short-to-medium text in editorial or book-cover contexts, particularly when a classic, weighty serif voice is desired.
The tone is traditional and authoritative, leaning toward editorial gravitas rather than delicacy. Its heavy color and sharp finishing details convey confidence and seriousness, suitable for content that should feel established and emphatic.
Likely intended as a conventional, high-impact serif that preserves classic text-serif structure while increasing presence for modern editorial hierarchy. The design emphasizes firmness, legibility, and a confident, traditional voice.
Capital shapes read as monumental and stable, while the lowercase maintains a utilitarian clarity at text sizes. The punctuation and numerals appear designed to match the font’s dense texture, helping paragraphs keep a consistent, dark typographic color.
