A conventional text serif with sharp, bracketed serifs and noticeable stroke modulation that follows a calligraphic, diagonal stress. Capitals are stately and evenly proportioned, with crisp apexes and clean, tapered terminals; round letters keep generous internal space and smooth curves. The lowercase reads traditionally, with a two-storey a and g, moderate ascenders/descenders, and clear, upright rhythm. Numerals are oldstyle-leaning in feel, mixing straight and curved forms with varied widths and strong baseline presence.
Well suited to long-form reading in print or high-resolution settings, including books, essays, and magazine articles. It can also serve for headings, pull quotes, and institutional materials where a traditional serif presence and clear typographic hierarchy are desired.
The overall tone is bookish and established, projecting tradition and credibility rather than novelty. Its contrast and crisp serifs give it a refined, editorial voice suitable for serious or cultured messaging.
The design appears intended as a dependable, traditional text face with enough contrast to feel polished while keeping proportions and counters comfortable for continuous reading. It aims to deliver a familiar literary character and strong typographic authority without drawing attention to stylistic quirks.
Spacing appears balanced with a steady text color, and the serif treatment stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. The italic is not shown; the samples indicate the roman carries the intended voice on its own in continuous reading.
