This serif typeface shows tall, compact proportions with a notably narrow set and a clear vertical stress. Strokes transition with moderate contrast, and the serifs are bracketed with a slightly flared, tapered finish that reads crisp rather than heavy. The drawing feels disciplined and conventional, with open counters and a steady rhythm in text; details like the angled terminals and the high, refined joins keep the color even despite the condensed widths. Numerals follow the same restrained, old-style-leaning construction, keeping the overall texture consistent in running lines.
Well-suited to books, editorial typography, and publication layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired and horizontal space is at a premium. It can also serve effectively for narrow headlines, subheads, and captions that need a classic voice while keeping lines compact.
The tone is traditional and literary, with a composed, slightly authoritative voice. Its narrow stance and sharp finishing give it an editorial seriousness—more classic and bookish than casual—suggesting formality without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif optimized for compact setting: preserving familiar, readable forms while tightening width and maintaining a controlled, moderately contrasted stroke structure for a steady page color.
In the sample text, the condensed widths create an efficient, economical line while maintaining legibility through clear interior space and clean serif articulation. Capitals appear especially statuesque, and the punctuation and dots read small and tidy, reinforcing a refined, print-oriented feel.
