A conventional serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and a steady, even rhythm. Strokes show noticeable but controlled contrast, with smooth transitions into terminals and a slightly calligraphic modulation rather than purely geometric construction. The capitals are broad and stable with clean horizontals and gently flared serifs, while the lowercase maintains a moderate x-height and open counters for comfortable text color. Numerals appear oldstyle (varying heights and alignments), reinforcing a traditional text-oriented palette.
This font suits extended reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where an orthodox serif texture and clear word shapes are desirable. It also fits academic and professional documents that benefit from a traditional, credible typographic voice, and can scale up for headings that remain refined rather than decorative.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with a measured formality that reads as established and reliable. It conveys a quiet elegance suitable for content-forward typography rather than attention-seeking display.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose text serif: familiar proportions, restrained contrast, and conservative detailing aimed at dependable readability and a timeless typographic presence.
The italic is not shown; the visible style relies on balanced proportions and consistent serif treatment across curves and diagonals. Lowercase forms like a, e, and g present familiar, book-type shapes, contributing to predictable word silhouettes and legibility in paragraph settings.
