This typeface is an oblique serif with a pronounced forward slant, compact proportions, and a steady, text-oriented rhythm. Strokes show moderate contrast with gently tapered terminals and bracketed, wedge-like serifs that feel carved rather than mechanical. Curves are full and controlled, counters are relatively tight, and joins stay smooth, giving the letterforms a cohesive, slightly calligraphic flow. Numerals follow the same italic energy, with sturdy shapes and clear differentiation.
Well-suited for editorial typography such as magazine features, book interiors, and literary layouts where an italic is used for emphasis, quotations, and sidebars. It can also serve in refined subheads, pull quotes, and short display lines that benefit from a classic, energetic slant.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, with an elegant, cultivated voice. Its slanted posture adds momentum and emphasis, reading as refined rather than flamboyant. The look suggests a dependable classic suitable for serious, polished communication.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable italic serif that delivers traditional authority with a touch of motion. It prioritizes cohesive text texture and familiar proportions while retaining enough sharpness in the serifs and terminals to feel crisp in print-like settings.
The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a strong typographic “color” and a continuous left-to-right motion. Serifs remain crisp at display sizes while the moderate contrast and compact spacing keep the texture unified in paragraph settings.
