A slanted, high-contrast serif with flared stroke endings and wedge-like terminals that give the letterforms a sharp, chiseled finish. Strokes show a strong thick–thin rhythm, with crisp joins and bracketed transitions where stems meet serifs or arms. Proportions feel traditionally modeled with a moderate x-height, compact counters, and slightly condensed-looking capitals, while the overall spacing and rhythm stay even and controlled. Numerals and punctuation echo the same italic energy, using angled stress and tapered finishes for a consistent texture in setting.
Well-suited for editorial headlines, magazine typography, and prominent subheads where a refined but energetic italic is desired. It can also serve branding and advertising applications that benefit from a classic, high-impact serif voice, particularly at medium to large sizes.
The font conveys a polished, classic tone with a sense of momentum and authority. Its pronounced contrast and angular serifs create a dramatic, editorial voice that feels premium and assertive rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif foundation with an emphatic italic personality—combining calligraphic movement, high contrast, and flared terminals to create a dramatic, print-forward texture for display and editorial use.
In text, the italic slant and high contrast produce a lively cadence and strong word-shape, with noticeable emphasis on diagonals and pointed terminals. The bold weight and compact apertures can create a dense, inky color, making it especially striking in short bursts or display contexts.
