A robust serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and a strong, confident stroke presence. The letterforms show moderate contrast with rounded transitions into serifs and gently tapered terminals, producing a steady rhythm in text. Counters are relatively compact and the overall color is dark and even, with classic proportions and slightly variable widths across glyphs. Numerals appear oldstyle, with noticeable ascenders and descenders that integrate smoothly with lowercase text.
Well-suited to book interiors, essays, long-form editorial layouts, and academic or institutional materials where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for headings and pull quotes when a strong, classical presence is needed.
The font conveys a traditional, bookish tone with an authoritative, institutional feel. Its sturdy serifs and dense texture suggest seriousness and reliability rather than delicacy or novelty.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes an established, classical reading experience. Its forms aim for dependable legibility and a familiar literary tone, with oldstyle figures to harmonize with continuous text settings.
Lowercase forms have a sturdy, editorial character, with clearly differentiated shapes (notably in a, g, and e) that support legibility at text sizes. The capitals feel weighty and formal, and the figures’ oldstyle behavior reinforces a classical typographic voice in running text.
