A high-contrast italic serif with sharply cut, wedge-like bracketed serifs and pronounced stroke modulation. The letterforms show a forward-leaning, calligraphic construction with angled stress, crisp terminals, and compact internal counters that create a dark, saturated texture. Capitals are sturdy and slightly condensed in feel despite generous overall width in rounds, while lowercase forms keep a lively rhythm with strongly shaped joins and distinctive diagonals. Numerals match the text color and slant, with sculpted curves and firm, serifed feet that hold the baseline.
Well suited for headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other display roles where an italic serif can carry emphasis without losing refinement. It also works for editorial typography—magazine features, book covers, and cultural posters—especially when a dense, high-contrast texture is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and traditional, with a theatrical, editorial flair. Its sharp serifs and steep italic energy suggest urgency and emphasis, while the familiar old-style proportions keep it grounded and literary.
The design appears intended to deliver a forceful italic voice within a conventional serif framework, combining traditional proportions with sharper, more dramatic detailing. It prioritizes expressive emphasis and a strong typographic color for display and editorial settings.
In text, the strong contrast and tight counters produce a bold page color that reads as formal and emphatic. The italic angle is consistent across cases, and the serifs are crisp enough to feel engraved rather than rounded, lending a slightly dramatic, poster-like presence at larger sizes.
