A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and sturdy vertical stems, showing a distinctly classical construction and steady, upright posture. Serifs are finely tapered and largely bracketed, with sharp, clean terminals that keep the letterforms bright and precise. Proportions lean traditional with moderate x-height and well-contained counters, producing a composed text rhythm; capitals feel stately and slightly narrow, while the lowercase maintains clear, bookish shapes with two-storey a and g. Numerals follow the same contrast and refinement, with elegant curves and restrained detailing.
It suits long-form reading in books and literary publishing, as well as magazine and newspaper-style editorial layouts where a refined, traditional voice is desired. The high contrast and sharp detailing also make it effective for pull quotes, headlines, and formal materials such as invitations or programs, especially at moderate to larger sizes.
The font conveys an editorial, literary tone—polished and authoritative rather than casual. Its sharp hairlines and classical proportions suggest sophistication, ceremony, and a premium print sensibility.
The design appears intended as a conventional, classical text serif with pronounced contrast and crisp finishing, balancing readability with a distinctly elegant, print-oriented character.
Round letters show a subtle vertical stress and careful modulation through curves, which enhances the engraved-like crispness at larger sizes. The overall color on the page remains relatively light for a text serif due to the thin horizontals and delicate serifs, favoring clarity and elegance over ruggedness.
