A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, tapered terminals. Serifs are mostly bracketed and relatively fine, with crisp joins and a disciplined, vertical axis feel. Proportions run on the condensed side, keeping counters compact and the overall texture tight; spacing appears even and controlled. Lowercase shows a traditional text-seriffed construction with a two-storey “a,” sturdy verticals, and a distinctly calligraphic “g,” while the numerals read as oldstyle figures with varying heights and lively curves.
Well-suited to long-form editorial typography such as books, essays, and magazine layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for refined headlines, pull quotes, and title treatment, especially where a compact width helps fit more characters per line.
The font conveys an editorial, bookish tone—measured and authoritative rather than decorative. Its contrast and fine details add refinement and a slightly dramatic, traditional voice suited to serious or cultured contexts.
The design appears intended as a conventional, literary serif that balances tradition with crisp modern sharpness. Its condensed proportions and high contrast suggest an aim for elegant economy—creating a refined page color and strong hierarchy in editorial composition.
Capitals are stately and clean, with a narrow footprint that builds a strong vertical rhythm in headings. The italics are not shown; the sample demonstrates that the roman has enough sparkle in the hairlines to feel elegant at display sizes while maintaining a structured text color in running settings.
