This is a conventional serif with pronounced stroke contrast, bracketed serifs, and a steady, upright axis. The letterforms show compact inner counters and a firm baseline rhythm, with crisp hairlines that sharpen at terminals and thicker stems that keep the page color confident. Capitals are stately and evenly proportioned, while the lowercase combines rounded bowls with slightly tapered joins; the italic is not shown, but the roman has a subtly calligraphic snap in strokes like the beak-like terminals and the energetic curves of forms such as the g and y. Numerals are proportionate and text-friendly, with clear differentiation and classic serif detailing.
It suits long-form reading such as books, essays, and journals, and it also performs well for editorial layouts, headlines paired with body copy, and formal documents. The strong contrast and clean serif structure make it appropriate for brand identities that want a classic, established voice.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, evoking established editorial typography and academic or institutional communication. Its contrast and sharp finishing details add a touch of ceremony, making it feel authoritative without becoming ornate.
