The text is rendered in a classic and elegant serif font, giving it an authoritative yet sophisticated feel. The lighting is stark, characterized by brilliant white text against the pure, deep black background, which creates a powerful and direct visual statement. The color palette is exclusively black and white, serving to maximize legibility and focus entirely on the message.
