A conventional text serif with bracketed serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation that gives the page a crisp, engraved feel. Proportions run on the broader side with generous set width and sturdy, fairly vertical stems, while curves show moderate stress rather than perfectly geometric construction. Serifs are sharp and neatly tapered, with small, controlled details on terminals and joins; counters remain open and readable despite the contrast. The lowercase shows a traditional rhythm with a two-storey “g” and a ball/teardrop-like ear, a compact “a,” and a relatively straight-sided “m/n,” producing an even, bookish texture in paragraphs.
Well suited for book typography, magazines, and other editorial contexts where a classic serif texture and strong typographic voice are desired. It can also serve effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and formal branding when paired with ample leading and margins to let the contrast and serifs breathe.
The overall tone is traditional and confident, suited to established institutions and long-form reading. Its contrast and crisp finishing add a slightly dramatic, editorial polish without tipping into ornament or display excess.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable serif with enough contrast and crisp detailing to feel refined in print-oriented settings. Its broader proportions and oldstyle numerals suggest an emphasis on comfortable long-form texture and traditional typographic conventions.
The numerals appear oldstyle (text figures), mixing ascenders and descenders to blend smoothly with lowercase text. In the sample, the spacing and word shapes stay stable at larger sizes, and the strong serif cues create clear line endings and a structured reading rhythm.
