A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and weighty vertical stems, showing a distinctly vertical, upright construction. Serifs are fine and neatly bracketed, with tapered entry/exit strokes that create a polished, classical rhythm. Capitals feel stately and well-proportioned, while the lowercase has a compact, text-friendly structure with clear apertures and delicate joins; round forms show subtle stress and lively modulation. Numerals follow the same contrast and refinement, with thin horizontal elements and pronounced thick-to-thin transitions.
Well-suited to editorial design, book typography, and magazine layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for refined headlines, pull quotes, and formal stationery when printed or displayed at sizes that let the hairlines hold up cleanly.
The font reads as cultured and traditional, evoking bookish authority and a measured, editorial tone. Its sharp refinement and strong vertical emphasis convey formality and confidence without feeling overly ornate.
Likely designed to deliver a conventional, classical serif texture with elevated contrast for a more upscale, contemporary editorial feel. The consistent modulation and carefully finished serifs suggest an emphasis on typographic refinement and composed readability.
At larger sizes the hairlines and small details become especially striking, giving headings a luxurious snap; in smaller settings the contrast and fine serifs may call for comfortable line spacing and sufficient rendering resolution. The overall color on the page is clean and composed, with a slightly dramatic contrast that suits refined typography.
