This is a traditional serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke contrast, and a calm, even rhythm. Letterforms show gently tapered stems and subtly flared terminals, with rounded joins and softened curves that keep the texture from feeling rigid. The lowercase uses a two-storey “a” and “g,” with fairly open counters and clear differentiation between similar forms, supporting steady reading flow. Capitals are proportioned with restrained width and clean, classical detailing; numerals follow the same text-oriented, bookish style with smooth curves and consistent weight distribution.
Well suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and reports, as well as editorial layouts where a dependable serif texture is desired. It also works effectively for headings, pull quotes, and institutional branding that benefits from a traditional, established tone.
The overall tone is classical and literary, projecting a measured, authoritative voice rather than a flashy or trendy one. Its detailing suggests a humanist, print-rooted sensibility that feels suitable for serious, editorial communication.
The design appears intended as a conventional, highly readable serif with familiar proportions and understated refinement, aiming for versatility across continuous text and display settings while maintaining a classic typographic voice.
In text, the font forms a coherent, moderately dark paragraph color with crisp serifs that help define word shapes without appearing sharp or brittle. Curved letters (C, G, S) show smooth modulation, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) maintain sturdy joins that preserve clarity at display sizes.
