A slanted serif with sturdy, dark strokes and bracketed wedge-like serifs that sharpen into pointed terminals. The letterforms show an energetic, calligraphic flavor: curves swell slightly through the mid-strokes and taper into crisp beaks and angled endings, while the overall rhythm stays even and textlike. Proportions read generously set with open counters and a steady x-height, and the italic construction is evident in the forward-leaning stems and flowing joins in the lowercase.
This style suits editorial headlines, magazine features, and book or article titling where an italic serif needs to read with clarity and authority. It also works well for posters, branding lines, and short blocks of emphasized text where the energetic slant and sharp detailing can carry the message without becoming decorative.
The tone is distinctly editorial and classical, with a confident, slightly theatrical italic voice. It feels authoritative and refined, but the sharp terminals and lively curvature add motion and personality, giving it a spirited, emphatic presence in headlines and pull quotes.
The design appears intended as a robust, conventional italic serif for text and display emphasis, balancing traditional proportions with sharper, more animated terminals. It prioritizes strong presence and clean readability while retaining a distinctly calligraphic, expressive stroke character.
Uppercase forms maintain a strong, stable silhouette while still showing italic stress, and the lowercase features expressive entry and exit strokes that help words connect visually. Numerals are bold and clear, matching the same angled, wedge-terminal logic for a cohesive typographic color.
