This typeface is a high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a pronounced vertical stress. The capitals are stately and relatively wide, with clean wedge-like terminals on strokes such as C, G, and S, and a balanced, open construction across rounds. Lowercase forms show a traditional text rhythm with clear modulation, compact joints, and a two-storey g; ascenders are tall and steady while the x-height sits comfortably in the middle, supporting readability. Figures appear lining with strong contrast and classic shapes, including a sharply angled 4 and a compact, neatly proportioned 8.
It performs well for book and long-form reading, where its contrast and measured proportions create a familiar text color. The sharper detailing and confident capitals also make it effective for magazine work, section heads, and formal headline settings, as well as academic or institutional typography.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, projecting authority and polish without feeling ornate. It reads as traditional and literary, suitable for contexts where a sober, established voice is desired.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that delivers a refined, authoritative reading experience while remaining versatile enough for both continuous text and display-sized headings.
Spacing and proportions produce an even, column-like texture in paragraphs, with clear differentiation between similar shapes (e.g., I, l, and 1) through serif and terminal treatment. The design favors clean, decisive details—especially in diagonals and curved terminals—giving it a crisp, print-forward character.
