This typeface is a high-contrast serif with sharply tapered, wedge-like serifs and a crisp, engraved feel. Strokes transition from thin hairlines to weighty stems, with tight joins and clean terminals that stay pointed rather than blunt. Proportions are moderately narrow in the capitals with generous internal space, while the lowercase shows a lively rhythm and slightly varying set widths across letters. The lowercase includes a single-storey "g" and calligraphic inflections in shapes like "a", "r", and "y", and the numerals appear oldstyle with clear ascenders and descenders.
It suits magazine and newspaper-style headlines, book and chapter titles, pull quotes, and other editorial display settings where high contrast and sharp detailing can shine. It can also support premium brand marks and packaging that benefit from a classic, authoritative serif texture.
The overall tone is traditional and polished, conveying an editorial, bookish seriousness with a hint of classical sophistication. Its sharp contrast and pointed details add a sense of precision and ceremony that reads as formal rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, readable serif foundation with elevated contrast and crisp wedge serifs for a more distinguished, display-forward character. It balances classical proportions with lively lowercase movement to maintain energy in text while remaining firmly traditional.
At display sizes the hairlines and sharp serifs become a defining feature, giving the face a distinctive, slightly dramatic texture. The italic is not shown; the samples indicate a consistent upright roman voice with strong headline presence.
