A conventional serif with bracketed, slightly flared serifs and smooth, calligraphic modulation through the strokes. Proportions are moderately wide with generous internal space and open counters, giving the face a steady, readable color in text. Capitals are stately and restrained, with clear stroke endings and rounded curves; the lowercase shows a two-storey a and g, a modestly angled stress, and traditional shapes for r, e, and s. Numerals appear oldstyle (with ascenders/descenders) and follow the same serifed, gently modulated construction as the letters.
This design is well suited to extended reading in books, journals, and other editorial layouts where consistent texture and comfortable spacing matter. It also fits academic and corporate documents, captions, and pull quotes when a traditional serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, suggesting established authority and a measured, editorial voice. Its traditional details read as familiar and trustworthy rather than attention-seeking, making it feel at home in published, long-form contexts.
The font appears intended as a dependable, traditional text serif that balances classic letterforms with comfortable readability. Its moderated contrast, open counters, and oldstyle numerals point toward use in continuous text and mixed typography where a conventional, literary tone is beneficial.
The rhythm is even and composed, with careful joins and smooth curves that keep word shapes clear at paragraph sizes. Terminals and serifs are not overly sharp, which softens the texture slightly while preserving a formal, print-oriented character.
