Volkhov Bold by Ivan Petrov for Cyreal is a free robust serif font with broad, dark strokes and sharply cut serifs. The lowercase remains lively and distinctly shaped.
In publishing, it suits magazine mastheads and book covers that need an authoritative but not severe voice. The sturdy silhouette and changing stroke widths also fit heritage food packaging and cultural event posters, where the lettering can become part of a traditional seal or printed emblem rather than acting as neutral text.
