A serif typeface with moderate stroke contrast and a steady, upright stance. The letterforms show smooth, bracketed serifs and subtly tapered strokes, with a clear, traditional skeleton and gently rounded joins. Proportions feel balanced and readable, with generous counters in letters like O and e, and a rhythmic, slightly calligraphic modulation through curves and diagonals. Numerals appear oldstyle in character, mixing ascenders and descenders that blend naturally with running text.
Well-suited to continuous reading in books and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It can also serve in magazine typography, cultural branding, and headlines that benefit from a classic, authoritative presence without becoming overly ornate.
The overall tone is literary and editorial, conveying a composed, bookish refinement rather than a stark or technical feel. Its contrast and serif detailing give it an established, trustworthy voice suited to long-form reading and measured headlines.
Likely designed to provide a familiar, high-legibility serif voice with enough contrast and detail to feel refined in print-like settings. The oldstyle-flavored numerals and moderated contrast suggest an emphasis on comfortable reading and an editorial palette.
The sample text suggests strong spacing and even texture in paragraphs, with clear differentiation between similar shapes (e.g., I, l, and 1) and a lively but controlled rhythm from the curved strokes and bracketed serif transitions.
