This serif typeface shows clear modulation between thick and thin strokes, with bracketed wedge-like serifs and a crisp, print-oriented finish. Uppercase forms are stately and relatively broad, with open counters and steady verticals; the lowercase carries a traditional book-face rhythm with a two-storey “a” and “g,” and teardrop/ball terminals on letters such as “a,” “c,” and “f.” Curves are smooth and controlled, joins are clean, and spacing appears even, giving the text a stable line texture. Numerals match the text color well and read as traditional lining figures with moderate contrast and sturdy stems.
Well suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and magazine articles, where its contrast and open counters support a clear, classical texture. It also works effectively for formal communications—reports, programs, and institutional materials—and can lend a traditional, credible tone to headings and brand typography when set with generous spacing.
Overall it conveys a classic, editorial voice—measured, trustworthy, and slightly traditional. The sharp contrasts and tidy serifs add a refined, institutional tone that feels at home in literary or academic settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with a polished, print-classical feel, balancing readability with a refined, high-contrast presence. Its proportions and terminal details suggest a focus on producing an elegant page color without becoming overly decorative.
The italic is not shown; the roman demonstrates a consistent serif vocabulary across caps, lowercase, and figures. The round letters keep generous interior space, while straight-sided letters maintain a calm, upright posture, supporting comfortable reading at paragraph sizes.
