A crisp, high-contrast serif with bracketed wedge-like serifs and a slightly calligraphic stroke modulation. The letterforms show relatively narrow joins, tapered terminals, and a confident vertical stress that keeps the texture clean and refined. Capitals are stately and open, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with compact bowls and clear counters; the italic is not shown. Numerals appear in oldstyle forms with pronounced ascenders/descenders, giving text a traditional, flowing numeric color.
Well-suited for long-form reading and editorial settings such as books, essays, and magazine typography, where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs convincingly in display roles—headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding—especially when the design calls for a traditional, literature-forward character.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, evoking traditional book typography and established print culture. It reads as serious and cultivated, with enough sharpness in the serifs and contrast to feel confident and authoritative rather than soft or casual.
The design appears intended as a conventional, print-oriented serif that balances readability with a polished, classical aesthetic. Its high-contrast modulation and oldstyle numerals suggest an emphasis on traditional typographic color and a composed, editorial presence.
In the sample text, the strong contrast and crisp serifs create a lively line texture at larger sizes, while the oldstyle figures contribute to a period-leaning, literary feel. The ampersand follows the same serifed, high-contrast construction and blends seamlessly with surrounding text.
