A classic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and bracketed, gently tapered serifs. Curves show calligraphic stress, giving round letters a slightly vertical, bookish rhythm, while straight stems remain crisp and steady. Proportions feel traditional with moderate apertures and open counters; capitals are stately and well-balanced, and lowercase forms are compact without feeling tight. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with clear structure and strong vertical presence.
Well-suited to continuous reading in books, long articles, and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also serve formal communications such as academic writing and reports, and works effectively for headings when a traditional, authoritative voice is needed.
The overall tone is formal and literary, with an editorial seriousness that reads as established and trustworthy. Its high-contrast shaping and traditional detailing convey refinement and authority rather than casualness or overt modernity.
The design appears intended as a dependable, conventional text serif that prioritizes readability and typographic tradition. Its contrast and serif treatment aim to provide a refined, print-like feel while remaining versatile across body copy and display sizes.
In text, the face maintains a consistent baseline and calm spacing, producing a familiar, page-oriented texture. The italics are not shown; the exhibited roman emphasizes sharp joins, clear serifs, and a restrained, conventional color suitable for long-form reading.
