A sturdy serif with pronounced bracketed serifs and subtly flared stroke endings that add a sculpted, engraved feel. Strokes read as bold and confident with visible contrast between thick verticals and thinner connecting strokes, and the overall texture is dark and compact. Counters are moderately tight and apertures tend to be somewhat closed, giving the face a dense rhythm. Curves are smooth but slightly pinched at joins, and the uppercase shows broad, stable proportions with strong vertical emphasis.
Well suited to headlines, deck copy, posters, and book-cover typography where a strong serif texture is desired. It can also work for branding and packaging that benefits from a classic, authoritative voice, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the dense counters and crisp serif detailing remain legible.
The font conveys an authoritative, traditional tone with a hint of theatrical drama. Its dense color and flared finishing strokes create a confident, slightly old-world voice suited to emphatic statements and formal messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, classic serif presence with flared finishing strokes that enhance drama and visual authority. It prioritizes impact and a traditional editorial character over airy readability, creating a distinctive, weighty typographic color.
Numerals are weighty and display-oriented, matching the uppercase in presence and solidity. The lowercase maintains a sturdy, upright build with clear differentiation between letters, while the overall spacing and dark color favor larger sizes for best clarity.
