A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered terminals and clearly bracketed serifs. The strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation and a forward-leaning, calligraphic rhythm, with pointed apexes and wedge-like entries that create a crisp, sculpted texture. Capitals are slightly narrow and dynamic, while the lowercase maintains a conventional x-height with lively ascenders and descenders; figures follow the same italic stress and include oldstyle-style forms such as a descending 9.
This font fits long-form reading contexts such as book typography and magazine/editorial layouts, especially for emphasis, quotations, and lead-ins where a confident italic is needed. It also works well in formal communications and refined branding copy when a traditional serif italic tone is desired.
The overall tone is classical and literary, with an elegant, cultivated voice suited to traditional typography. Its brisk italic movement and sharp finishing details add drama and authority without feeling decorative or novelty-driven.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif italic that balances readability with expressive, calligraphic sharpness. It aims to deliver a traditional publishing feel while providing a strong italic voice for emphasis and hierarchy within continuous text.
Spacing appears moderately open for an italic, helping it maintain clarity at text sizes while still reading as distinctly slanted. The italics show a consistent stress and stroke logic across letters and numerals, producing a cohesive page color in continuous text.
