A bold, conventional serif with pronounced stroke contrast and a broad footprint. The letterforms show bracketed, wedge-like serifs and crisp, tapered terminals, with vertical stems carrying most of the weight and thinner connecting strokes and apertures adding snap. Curves feel tightly controlled and slightly squared at joins, and several lowercase forms show distinct, oldstyle-leaning details such as a two-storey “g” with a strong ear and a “t” with a compact crossbar. Numerals are sturdy and legible, with clear differentiation and confident, editorial-style proportions.
This face suits headlines, display subheads, and pull quotes where a traditional serif voice is desired with strong presence. It also fits editorial and publishing contexts such as magazine titles, book covers, and section openers, and can work for branding that aims for a classic, established impression.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, projecting a bookish, institutional voice. Its assertive weight and sharply finished serifs add a sense of seriousness and tradition, while the lively contrast keeps it from feeling dull or purely utilitarian.
The font appears designed to deliver a familiar, traditional serif character with emphatic weight and clear hierarchy, combining classic bracketed serifs with pronounced contrast for impact in larger sizes and short-to-medium blocks of copy.
The design reads best when given room: the wide set and heavy serifs create a strong horizontal rhythm, and counters can appear tight in dense settings. In text samples it maintains a consistent dark color and a distinctly editorial texture, making it well-suited to bold typographic hierarchy.
