This typeface is a high-contrast serif with pronounced bracketed, flared terminals that widen as strokes meet the ends, producing a sculpted, engraved feel. Serifs are sharp and triangular in places, with smooth bracketing on key joins, and the overall stroke modulation reads as calligraphic rather than mechanical. Counters are compact and the color is strong, while diagonals (V, W, X) and peaked forms (A, M, N) show crisp apexes and tapered hairlines. The lowercase shows a traditional, bookish structure with a two-storey a and g, a sturdy vertical rhythm, and clearly differentiated numerals with strong thick–thin contrast.
Well suited to headlines, magazine and newspaper-style editorial typography, and book-cover titling where high contrast and sharp serifs can be appreciated. It can also support premium branding and packaging that benefits from a classic, institutional voice and a strong, dark typographic color.
The overall tone is formal and authoritative, with an editorial, old-style sensibility that feels suited to established institutions. Its sharp serifs and dramatic modulation add a sense of seriousness and ceremony, while the flared endings contribute a subtle, crafted warmth rather than a purely rigid, modern stance.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classical serif proportions with expressive contrast and flared, bracketed endings to achieve both refinement and impact. It emphasizes crisp silhouettes and a carved, print-forward texture that holds presence in display settings while retaining traditional letterform cues.
At larger sizes the sharp terminals and pronounced modulation become a defining texture, giving headlines and titling a confident, engraved presence. In continuous text, the dense weight and compact counters create a dark, emphatic page color that favors measured spacing and generous leading.
