This is a conventional serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a steady, book-oriented rhythm. Capitals are stately and relatively wide, with crisp terminals and clear triangular/bracketed serif transitions. Lowercase shows an oldstyle leaning structure: a two-storey “a,” a double-storey “g” with a pronounced ear, and a gently angled, calligraphic stress in round letters like “o” and “e.” Numerals follow the same text-face logic, with open counters and classic proportions that sit comfortably alongside the lowercase.
It is well-suited to long-form reading in books, magazines, and editorial layouts, as well as reports and other formal documents where a classic serif texture is desirable. In larger sizes it can also serve as a restrained headline or titling face that retains a traditional, institutional feel.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, projecting an editorial, literary voice rather than a decorative one. It reads as authoritative and familiar—suited to content that benefits from a measured, established typographic presence.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose text serif: familiar, readable, and stylistically conservative, with enough modulation and serif detail to provide an elegant printed texture while staying neutral for broad editorial use.
The font maintains consistent spacing and color in paragraph settings, with distinct letterforms that help avoid ambiguity (notably in the shapes of “I,” “l,” and “1”). Serifs remain relatively fine and bracketed, supporting long-form readability without becoming overly ornate.
