A classic serif with bracketed serifs and a measured, even rhythm. Strokes show moderate contrast with clean, slightly rounded joins that keep counters open and readable. Capitals are sturdy and proportionate, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward text structure with clear bowls and modest terminals; the overall color on the page is dark but not heavy. Numerals are lining-style in appearance, with familiar, text-friendly shapes and consistent spacing.
Well suited to body copy in books, essays, and editorial layouts where sustained readability matters. It also fits academic and professional documents—reports, journals, and formal correspondence—where a conventional serif voice supports clarity and authority.
The font conveys a traditional, bookish tone—confident and composed rather than decorative. Its controlled contrast and conventional forms suggest credibility and seriousness, making it feel appropriate for established institutions and long-form reading.
The design appears intended as a conventional, workhorse text serif: familiar letterforms, moderate contrast, and a stable typographic color aimed at comfortable reading and dependable everyday composition.
Serifs are neither hairline-fine nor slabby, producing a sturdy texture that holds up in paragraphs. The italic is not shown, and the design emphasis appears to be on a dependable roman suited to continuous text.
