A high-contrast serif with strong vertical stress and crisply cut, wedge-like terminals that broaden into subtly flared endings. Serifs are small but assertive, with a sculpted, engraved feel and sharp joins that create a lively rhythm in text. Bowls and counters are relatively compact, while capitals are tall and commanding; diagonals (V, W, X) read clean and taut. Lowercase shows a traditional structure with pronounced beaks and tapered strokes, and numerals follow the same contrasty, carved logic.
Well-suited for magazine and newspaper-style headlines, book covers, and other editorial applications where a bold, classic voice is needed. It also works for posters and branding that want a traditional, high-contrast serif presence, especially at display sizes where the flared terminals and sharp details can be appreciated.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, projecting confidence and tradition with a slightly dramatic, display-ready edge. It suggests refinement and seriousness rather than friendliness, lending a sense of ceremony and authority to headlines and pull quotes.
The design appears intended to combine classical serif proportions with a more sculptural, flared terminal treatment, producing a confident display texture that still reads coherently in setting. Its contrast and carved details seem aimed at adding drama and hierarchy without abandoning a conventional serif framework.
In the sample text, the dense color and sharp contrast create strong word shapes and a crisp texture at larger sizes. The pointed terminals and flared stroke endings give many letters a subtly chiseled silhouette that remains consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures.
