A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced diagonal stress, crisp hairlines, and fuller vertical strokes. Serifs appear finely bracketed and often wedge-like, with sharp terminals that reinforce a lively, chiseled rhythm. The italic construction is assertive, with sweeping entry and exit strokes and a slightly elastic texture that varies in apparent width across letters. Overall proportions feel traditional, with a moderate x-height and clear differentiation between thick and thin elements for a polished, editorial color.
Well suited to editorial typography such as books, magazines, and long-form reading where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, leads, or pull quotes. It also works effectively for refined headlines, cultural branding, and formal invitations where a classic italic serif can provide elegance and hierarchy.
The font conveys a classic, literary tone with a refined sense of formality. Its energetic italic movement and sharp serifs add drama and sophistication, suggesting cultured, established typography rather than casual or utilitarian use.
Likely designed to provide a conventional, readable serif italic with elevated contrast and a calligraphic edge, balancing tradition with a more dramatic, display-friendly presence when set large.
Round characters show strong thick–thin modulation and tapered joins that keep counters open despite the contrast. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, reading as stately and print-oriented alongside the letters.
