A heavy, high-contrast serif with broad proportions and strongly sculpted terminals. Stems and arms expand into flared, wedge-like endings with pronounced bracketing, producing beaked details on letters like C, S, and G and confident, triangular feet on capitals. Counters are relatively compact against the weight, and the overall rhythm is steady and upright, with a firm baseline and sturdy, display-oriented color. Numerals are similarly robust, with noticeable contrast and crisp serif treatment that keeps them visually consistent with the letters.
Best suited to display settings where its width, contrast, and sculpted serifs can read as intentional design—headlines, magazine titles, posters, and cover typography. It can also work for short bursts of text such as pull quotes or section openers where a strong editorial voice is desired.
The tone is traditional and editorial, combining old-style gravitas with a more theatrical, poster-like punch. Its carved, flared endings add a sense of ceremony and authority, making text feel emphatic and headline-driven rather than conversational.
Likely designed to deliver a classic serif voice with heightened impact: wide proportions, dramatic contrast, and flared, wedge-like terminals that feel carved and authoritative. The consistent treatment across capitals, lowercase, and numerals suggests an emphasis on cohesive branding and editorial display use.
In the sample text, the dense stroke weight and flared terminals create a strong word shape and a slightly compact texture at larger paragraph sizes. The wide set and assertive serifs help maintain clarity in all-caps, while the lowercase retains a classic, bookish silhouette with sturdy ascenders and clear, rounded counters.
