A classic serif with bracketed serifs and pronounced contrast between thick main strokes and hairline joins. The letterforms are upright with moderately wide proportions and an even, text-oriented rhythm. Curves are smoothly modeled and slightly calligraphic, while terminals and serifs stay sharp and tidy, giving the face a crisp finish. Numerals and capitals appear well balanced, with clear differentiation and steady baseline presence.
Well suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts, where its contrast and bracketed serifs provide a familiar, literary texture. It also fits formal communication such as reports, academic materials, and print-forward branding that benefits from a traditional, authoritative voice.
The overall tone feels traditional and cultivated, evoking book typography, editorial authority, and institutional polish. Its contrast and serif detailing add a refined, slightly ceremonial character that reads as serious rather than casual.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable text serif that balances elegance with practicality. Its high-contrast, carefully bracketed detailing suggests a goal of delivering classic typographic color for body copy while still looking distinguished in headings.
The italic is not shown; the style presented relies on strong verticals, delicate hairlines, and consistent serif shaping to carry emphasis. At larger sizes the fine details feel elegant, while in continuous text the regular spacing and calm proportions support sustained reading.
