This is a high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. Capitals are stately and relatively wide with open counters and a steady, upright stance, while the lowercase keeps a moderate x-height and clear differentiation between round and straight strokes. Terminals tend toward sharp, calligraphic points (notably on letters like a, c, f, and y), and curves transition into stems with smooth but decisive joins, giving the text a clean, print-like rhythm. Numerals and capitals share the same polished contrast and serif treatment, maintaining an even, classical texture in paragraphs.
Well suited to book and long-form editorial typography where a classic serif voice is desired, and it can also serve confidently in display sizes for titles, chapter openers, and magazine headlines. It works best in contexts that benefit from a refined, traditional look and clear typographic hierarchy.
The overall tone feels traditional and bookish, with an editorial seriousness and a polished, institutional confidence. Its high contrast and pointed detailing add a slightly dramatic, refined edge suited to formal settings rather than casual or playful ones.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable text serif with a distinctly classic flavor, balancing formal proportions with sharp, high-contrast detailing to provide both authority and elegance across body copy and headings.
In text, the font produces a bright page color with distinct letter silhouettes and strong vertical emphasis. The combination of wide capitals and sharp terminals helps headings stand out while preserving a conventional reading rhythm in longer passages.
