A conventional serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and bracketed wedge-like serifs that give strokes a crisp, chiseled finish. Proportions are balanced and readable, with moderately wide capitals and a steady rhythm in text. Curves are smoothly modeled and terminals are refined, producing a clear, print-oriented texture that stays composed at larger sizes.
Well suited to editorial typography such as books, magazines, and long-form articles, where a classic serif texture supports readability. It also performs nicely for headlines, pull quotes, and institutional or cultural branding that benefits from a traditional, authoritative feel. Numerals and capitals look appropriate for formal documents and informational layouts.
