A conventional serif italic with moderate stroke modulation and bracketed serifs. The italic construction shows a consistent rightward slant and a calligraphic rhythm, with tapered entry and exit strokes that keep the texture lively without becoming swashy. Uppercase forms are sturdy and slightly wide in stance, while lowercase letters have compact proportions and rounded bowls, producing an even, bookish color in text. Numerals follow the same oblique, serifed logic and sit comfortably alongside the letters.
Well suited for editorial typography where an italic is needed for emphasis, titles within text, pull quotes, or scholarly apparatus. It should perform best from paragraph sizes through subheads, especially in print-oriented layouts that benefit from a traditional serif italic texture.
The overall tone feels classical and literary, evoking traditional publishing and academic settings. Its italic voice reads as polished and slightly expressive, suited to emphasis and quoted material while remaining restrained.
This font appears designed as a dependable, traditional serif italic for continuous reading, balancing clear construction with enough calligraphic motion to distinguish emphasis without disrupting the page color.
The design maintains a steady baseline and consistent slant across letters and figures, with clear, conventional letterforms that prioritize familiar shapes over display eccentricity. Curves and terminals are crisply finished, giving a neat, well-edited impression in longer passages.
