This serif typeface shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with vertical stress and crisp, bracketed serifs. Capitals are stately and proportioned with moderate width, while rounds (C, G, O, Q) keep a smooth, controlled bowl and clean joins. The lowercase has a traditional text rhythm: a two-storey a and g, compact apertures, and clear, tapered terminals, producing a steady, print-oriented texture in paragraphs. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with sturdy stems and delicate hairlines that read well at display and text sizes.
Well-suited to book typography, essays, and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also work effectively for refined branding, headlines, and pull quotes when the design calls for a traditional, authoritative tone.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, with a composed, scholarly voice. Its sharp serifs and high contrast lend a sense of formality and authority, while the familiar oldstyle structure keeps it approachable and readable for long-form setting.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that evokes established book and newspaper traditions. Its consistent modulation, bracketed serifs, and familiar lowercase forms suggest a goal of dependable readability paired with a polished, classic presence.
Stroke endings are generally decisive and slightly tapered, and the punctuation and ampersand carry the same refined contrast as the letters. The sample text shows an even typographic color for a high-contrast serif, with strong word shapes and a classic page-like rhythm.
