A robust serif with strongly bracketed, wedge-like serifs and pronounced stroke modulation. The letterforms are broad and steady, with rounded transitions and softened corners that keep the heavy weight from feeling brittle. Curves show full bowls and open counters, while terminals often finish in subtle ball or teardrop shapes, especially in the lowercase. Spacing appears comfortable and even, supporting a stable horizontal rhythm in both caps and lowercase.
Well suited to headlines and display sizes where its broad proportions, strong serifs, and contrast can read as confident and classic. It can also support editorial pull quotes, section openers, and book-cover typography where a traditional serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is traditional and institutional, leaning toward bookish authority rather than sharp modernity. Its weight and wide stance give it a confident, declarative voice suited to prominent typographic roles.
Likely designed as a statement serif that blends conventional book typography cues with extra weight and width for impact. The intention appears to be reliable readability paired with a more expressive, old-style-leaning texture in the lowercase.
The lowercase includes distinctive, slightly calligraphic details (notably in the g, a, and s), adding warmth and personality within an otherwise conventional text-serif structure. Numerals are sturdy and highly legible, matching the font’s strong contrast and serif treatment.
