A slanted serif with calligraphic construction and softly flared, bracketed terminals. Strokes show a clear diagonal stress and moderate contrast, with broad, rounded curves and tapered joins that keep the rhythm lively. The italic angle is consistent, and proportions feel traditional: a steady x-height, generous bowls, and clear counters. Serifs read as short and integrated rather than sharp, giving the outlines a polished, print-oriented texture.
Well-suited to editorial typography where an italic is expected to carry both emphasis and personality—magazine features, book interiors, and longform layouts. It also works effectively for headlines, decks, and pull quotes where a traditional serif voice with added motion and elegance is desired.
The overall tone is refined and literary, with an old-world, editorial voice. Its slant and tapered details add motion and a gently expressive warmth while staying firmly on the formal side of the spectrum.
This design appears intended as a classic, print-friendly italic that balances readability with calligraphic energy. The flared, bracketed endings and moderated contrast suggest a focus on a smooth text color and an authoritative, traditional presence.
Capitals are sturdy and classical in silhouette, while the lowercase leans more fluid with noticeable entry/exit strokes and lively diagonals (especially in letters like k, v, w, and y). Numerals match the text color well and share the same italic momentum, supporting cohesive mixed typography.
