A robust serif with pronounced stroke contrast and a distinctly vertical, print-like rhythm. The letterforms show bracketed serifs and crisp, sculpted joins, with tapered stems and rounded, teardrop-style terminals appearing on several shapes. Counters are generally compact and the apertures are moderately closed, creating a dense, solid texture in lines of text. Curves are full and controlled, while diagonals and arms end in sharp, refined serifs that keep edges crisp at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and editorial typography where a dark, confident texture is desirable. It also fits book covers, magazine titles, and formal brand materials that benefit from a classic serif presence. In longer passages it can work when ample size and leading are available, helping preserve clarity amid its dense color.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, projecting authority and permanence. Its strong contrast and emphatic serifs lend a formal, bookish voice that feels suited to established institutions and classic publishing conventions. Despite the weight, the refined terminals keep it from feeling blunt, maintaining a composed, cultivated character.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional, high-impact serif voice with strong contrast and refined finishing. Its construction prioritizes authoritative presence and a classic reading texture, aiming for a familiar literary feel while remaining assertive in display settings.
Uppercase forms are stately with wide curves and confident verticals, while the lowercase shows classic serif construction with clear differentiation between similar shapes. Numerals are sturdy and old-style in spirit, with strong thick–thin modulation and prominent serifs that help them sit comfortably alongside text. In the sample paragraph, the font produces a dark, even color with clear word shapes and a slightly condensed sense of interior space.
