A slanted serif design with sturdy stems and clearly bracketed serifs that often taper into wedge-like endings. Strokes show moderate modulation, with rounded joins and softened corners that keep the texture dense but not harsh. The italic is distinctly drawn rather than merely skewed: several letters use single-story forms in the lowercase, and terminals frequently finish in teardrop/ball shapes. Proportions are compact with a stable rhythm, and the numerals follow the same italic, serifed construction for a cohesive set.
Well suited to editorial typography where a strong italic voice is needed, such as magazine features, book and journal styling, and pull quotes. The bold presence and classic serif detailing also work well for display uses like headlines, titling, and traditional brand identities that benefit from a formal, established tone.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with a slightly dramatic, old-style italic flavor that reads as authoritative and cultivated. Its weight and pronounced italic gestures give it an expressive, editorial voice suited to traditional publishing aesthetics.
The font appears intended as a robust, conventional serif italic with enough weight and character for emphasis, while remaining structured and readable in setting. Its design balances classic book typography cues with a punchier texture that supports prominent editorial applications.
The design maintains consistent serif handling across capitals, lowercase, and figures, producing a dark, even typographic color. The italic angle and pronounced entry/exit strokes add motion, while the bracketing keeps the forms grounded and text-friendly.
