A high-contrast serif with vertical stress and crisp, finely tapered hairlines set against sturdy main strokes. Serifs are sharp and compact with minimal bracketing, giving outlines a clean, engraved feel. Proportions are traditional with moderately open counters; capitals read stately and compact while the lowercase shows sturdy bowls and clear, upright construction. The numerals match the text color well, with strong thick–thin modulation and clear silhouettes suited to display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, pull quotes, and other larger-size typography where the contrast and fine serifs can be appreciated. It also fits editorial branding, book and magazine covers, and premium packaging where a traditional, polished voice is desired.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with an editorial polish that feels at home in print-oriented design. Its sharp contrast and refined detailing add a sense of ceremony and drama without becoming ornate.
Likely designed to deliver a refined, print-classic serif voice with strong contrast and crisp detailing, balancing traditional proportions with a bold, attention-getting presence for display and editorial typography.
Stroke joins and terminals stay controlled and consistent, producing a dense, confident texture in paragraphs. The italic is not shown; the roman’s strong contrast suggests it will benefit from sufficient size and spacing to keep hairlines from visually closing up in tighter settings.
