This is a conventional serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a noticeable thick–thin modulation that reads clearly at text sizes. The capitals are stately and relatively compact, with strong verticals and controlled, slightly tapered joins. Lowercase forms show sturdy, rounded bowls and modestly tight apertures, with a two-storey “a” and “g” and short, firm serifs that keep the rhythm even across words. Numerals are proportional and serifed, with clear differentiation and a balanced, slightly compact stance.
It is well suited to long-form reading in books, magazines, and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also support formal communication materials—reports, academic documents, and institutional collateral—while scaling up effectively for headings and pull quotes.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, projecting an editorial, bookish authority. Its sharp terminals and controlled contrast give it a serious, institutional feel without becoming overly ornamental.
The design appears intended as a dependable, text-first serif that balances tradition with clarity. Its measured contrast, compact proportions, and restrained detailing suggest a focus on legibility and an authoritative page color across continuous reading.
In sample text, spacing and color feel steady and text-oriented, with capitals that sit confidently alongside the lowercase. The “Q” has a prominent tail and the “J” features a strong hook, adding a slightly assertive character to display sizes while remaining consistent with the text style.
