This serif shows bracketed, wedge-like serifs and a steady, book-oriented rhythm with moderate stroke contrast. Capitals are stately and evenly proportioned, with crisp terminals and gently tapered joins that keep counters open. Lowercase forms are compact and readable, with a two-storey a and g, a modestly sized x-height, and sturdy verticals that give lines a stable texture. Numerals follow the same old-style-influenced shaping, with clear differentiation and consistent weight distribution.
Well-suited to continuous reading in books, long-form articles, and magazine layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It also fits reports, academic or institutional materials, and headings or pull quotes that need a traditional, authoritative voice without excessive flourish.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, evoking established editorial typography. Its restrained contrast and conventional detailing feel dependable and familiar, lending a sense of seriousness without becoming ornate.
The design appears aimed at a conventional text serif with familiar letterforms and careful, print-minded detailing. Its moderate contrast and bracketed serifs prioritize comfortable reading and a polished, timeless typographic color.
Diagonal strokes (as in V, W, X, Y) are sharp and clean, and round letters (O, C, G, Q) maintain smooth curvature with controlled modulation. The italic is not shown; the roman’s upright stance and crisp serif treatment dominate the impression.
