This serif typeface shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with crisp, tapered terminals and bracketed wedge serifs. Capitals are stately and moderately wide, with clear vertical stress and sharp joins in letters like N, V, and W. The lowercase maintains a traditional book face rhythm: a two-storey a, a two-storey g with a small ear, and compact, slightly pointed serifs that keep outlines clean in text. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with delicate joins and strong main strokes, producing an overall bright page color at display sizes.
Well-suited to long-form reading and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for magazine headlines, pull quotes, and formal collateral where crisp contrast and refined detailing can be shown at larger sizes.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with a distinctly editorial polish. Its sharp contrast and traditional proportions evoke book typography and institutional communication, leaning more formal than friendly.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that balances elegance with legibility, delivering a familiar bookish texture while retaining enough sharpness for display use in headlines and prominent typographic moments.
In the sample text, the design holds together well across mixed case, with clear differentiation between similar forms (I/l/1) and sturdy capitals that anchor headlines. The punctuation and ampersand appear sturdy and conventional, matching the typeface’s measured, traditional styling.
