About the Yrsa font
Yrsa is a serif typeface designed by Rosetta and Anna Giedryś and David Březina, first released to Google Fonts on June 2016. It ships with 5 weights · italic · variable and is licenced under the SIL Open Font License, which permits commercial use in websites, apps, documents and print without attribution or payment.
Its measured character is a medium x-height at 73% of the cap height, normal letter forms and medium stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Yrsa against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
