A conventional text serif with bracketed, slightly tapered serifs and moderate stroke modulation. The letterforms show softly rounded joins and a calm, even rhythm, with relatively open counters and clear apertures that support continuous reading. Capitals are sturdy and traditional in proportion, while the lowercase maintains a balanced x-height with gently calligraphic shaping. Numerals appear oldstyle (varying heights with descenders), reinforcing a bookish, editorial texture.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as book interiors, essays, and editorial layouts where an established serif texture is desired. It also fits academic and institutional documents, reports, and print-oriented typography needing a traditional, authoritative voice.
The font conveys a classic, well-mannered tone associated with printed literature and institutional communication. Its restrained contrast and traditional detailing feel trustworthy and familiar, lending an editorial seriousness without becoming ornate. Overall it reads as composed and cultivated rather than expressive or trendy.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif that prioritizes readability and a familiar, print-classical appearance. Its moderate contrast, conventional proportions, and oldstyle numerals suggest it was drawn to perform consistently in continuous text while maintaining a timeless typographic character.
Details like the two-storey “a” and “g,” the relatively small, crisp serifs, and the subtly angled stress contribute to a traditional page color. Spacing appears comfortable in paragraph settings, producing a stable baseline and consistent word shapes.
