A crisp, high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, sharp wedge-like terminals, and neatly bracketed serifs. Capitals are stately and relatively wide, with clean joins and a steady vertical stress. Lowercase forms read clearly at text sizes, showing a moderate x-height, compact bowls, and economical curves; the two-storey “a” and “g” reinforce a traditional text rhythm. Numerals follow the same contrast and serif logic, with open counters and strong baseline alignment.
Well-suited for long-form reading such as books and editorial layouts, where its contrast and familiar serif construction support a steady text color. It also scales effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and section titles in magazines, reports, and other formal documents.
The overall tone is classic and literary, conveying formality and authority without feeling heavy. Its sharp detailing and controlled contrast suggest a refined, editorial sensibility suited to traditional typography.
The design appears intended as a conventional, dependable text serif that balances elegance with clarity. Its high-contrast shaping and sharp terminals aim to deliver a polished, traditional voice across both body copy and display typography.
Spacing appears comfortably open in the sample text, with consistent sidebearings and a calm line rhythm. The serifs stay crisp even in larger display settings, giving headings a clean, engraved-like presence while keeping body text structured and readable.
