A sturdy text serif with bracketed serifs and softly sculpted strokes that show gentle modulation rather than sharp contrast. The shapes lean toward oldstyle proportions, with rounded bowls, slightly tapered terminals, and a lively baseline rhythm. Serifs are moderately sized and well integrated, giving strong footing without turning into slab forms. Counters stay open and the overall color is dense and even, with subtle irregularities that feel like ink spread or press gain rather than strict geometric construction.
Well suited to extended reading in print or on screen where a solid, conventional serif texture is desired. It can also support headlines, pull quotes, and section titling when a classic editorial voice and strong typographic color are needed.
The font conveys a traditional, bookish tone with an editorial seriousness. Its robust, slightly textured presence suggests printed matter and established institutions, balancing warmth with authority.
Likely designed as a dependable text serif that prioritizes readability and a familiar literary tone, with enough weight and presence to hold up in demanding layouts while retaining traditional proportions and detailing.
Uppercase forms are broad and stable, while lowercase shows classic text-face cues such as a two-storey "a" and a compact "e". Numerals match the text weight and feel, with simple, legible forms and a consistent rhythm across the set.
