A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and sharply cut terminals. The letterforms show clear thick–thin modulation with mostly vertical stress, giving a clean, upright rhythm. Capitals are sturdy and stately with pointed apexes and confident horizontal serifs, while lowercase features a compact, readable structure with pronounced serifs and neatly shaped bowls. Numerals are well-proportioned and text-oriented, matching the same contrast and finishing details for consistent color in setting.
Well-suited for editorial typography, book work, and other long-form print where a classic serif voice is desired. The strong contrast and crisp serifs also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and formal titling where a traditional, authoritative impression is helpful.
The tone is traditional and authoritative, with a bookish, editorial feel. Its sharp finishing and strong contrast add formality and a slightly dramatic, classical elegance suited to serious typography.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with refined contrast and traditional proportions, prioritizing clarity and a familiar reading rhythm while retaining enough sharp detail to feel distinguished in display settings.
Overall spacing reads even and controlled in the sample text, producing a firm typographic color at large sizes. Details like the single-storey "g" and the crisp, tapered diagonals contribute to a conventional yet characterful serif voice without becoming ornamental.
