A classic serif with pronounced stroke contrast and bracketed, wedge-like serifs that create a crisp, slightly calligraphic rhythm. Capitals are stately and fairly wide, with strong vertical stress in rounds like C, G, and O, and refined detailing in joints and terminals. Lowercase shows a moderate x-height with robust stems and clear counters; the two-story a and g, along with the ear and tail details, reinforce a traditional text face construction. Numerals appear lining and sturdy, with high-contrast curves and confident, book-style proportions that hold up in display-sized settings.
Well-suited to book typography, editorial layouts, and magazine text where a familiar, trustworthy serif voice is desired. The strong contrast and crisp serifs also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and brand wordmarks that aim for a classic, institutional tone.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, projecting a composed, authoritative voice associated with established publishing and academic contexts. Its high-contrast refinement reads as formal and polished rather than casual, giving text a sense of seriousness and editorial credibility.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, time-tested reading experience with elevated contrast and refined serif detailing, balancing traditional book-face construction with enough sharpness to perform in both text and display roles.
In the sample text, the face maintains a strong typographic color with sharp serif accents and clean interior spaces, supporting long-line readability while still feeling distinctive. The letterforms show consistent serif treatment and careful modulation, lending a slightly engraved, classical finish at larger sizes.
