A traditional serif with bracketed serifs, gently tapered strokes, and a clear modulation that reads as calm and controlled rather than sharp. The capitals are stately with moderate proportions and crisp terminals, while the lowercase shows a slightly calligraphic rhythm with open apertures and softly curved joins. Serifs are present but not heavy, giving the design a clean page color at text sizes. Numerals appear oldstyle, with varying heights and descenders that blend naturally with the lowercase texture.
Well-suited to extended reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where consistent rhythm and comfortable counters matter. It can also serve for headings and pull quotes when a traditional, reputable tone is desired, especially in print-centric designs.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, suggesting literary publishing, academic material, and other contexts that benefit from a familiar, authoritative voice. It feels refined and conventional, with enough warmth in the stroke and serif shaping to avoid looking sterile.
The design appears intended as a dependable, conventional text serif that prioritizes readability and a familiar typographic voice. Its balanced contrast and restrained detailing suggest an aim toward versatile, long-form setting rather than display experimentation.
Curves in letters like C, G, and S are smooth and generously rounded, while diagonals (V, W, X) stay crisp without becoming brittle. Ascenders are prominent, and the italic is not shown—only a steady upright with a measured, even rhythm in continuous text.
