This is a slanted serif with oldstyle proportions and a gently calligraphic construction. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation with tapered terminals and bracketed serifs, creating a smooth, continuous rhythm in text. The lowercase has a compact, readable structure with a moderate x-height and open apertures, while capitals feel stately and slightly narrow with crisp, classical serif detailing. Numerals follow the same angled, transitional-oldstyle logic, with curved forms and subtle variation that keeps them lively on the line.
Well-suited for continuous reading in books, long-form editorial layouts, and literary or academic publishing where a classic italic voice is needed. It also works effectively for pull quotes, intros, and formal communications such as invitations or announcements, as well as understated branding that benefits from tradition and refinement.
The overall tone is literary and traditional, evoking printed books, editorial typography, and academic material. The italic slant adds a sense of motion and emphasis without becoming flamboyant, reading as cultured and composed rather than decorative.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif italic with a classic, book-oriented color and a restrained calligraphic influence. Its priorities seem to be familiar readability, a balanced page rhythm, and a polished, historically rooted tone appropriate for editorial typography.
Letterforms maintain consistent slant and spacing for comfortable paragraph texture, with noticeable but controlled stroke contrast that helps define shapes at display and text sizes. Curved joins and softened terminals keep the texture warm, while the serifs and proportions preserve a conventional, trustworthy voice.
