A robust italic serif with strongly modulated strokes and crisp, bracketed wedge-like serifs. The design shows pronounced thick–thin contrast and a steady rightward slant, with tight curves and tapered terminals that create a sculpted, engraved feel. Proportions read on the broader side with generous capitals and sturdy numerals, while the lowercase maintains a conventional x-height and energetic rhythm. Overall spacing feels compact but even, supporting bold word shapes and continuous flow in text lines.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and display-driven editorial typography where an energetic italic voice is desirable. It can also work for short-to-medium text passages when a strong, traditional serif character is needed, and it’s well matched to packaging or cover designs that benefit from a classic yet emphatic tone.
The font conveys a traditional, editorial tone with a confident, slightly theatrical presence. Its calligraphic stress and sharp finishing details add drama and momentum, making it feel suited to emphatic statements rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif reading experience amplified by a bold italic stance—combining traditional proportions with higher contrast and sharpened details for impact. Its consistent modulation and pronounced serifs suggest a focus on expressive, premium-looking typography that remains legible while projecting authority.
Capitals are stately and weighty, with strong diagonals and pronounced entry/exit shaping; the italic forms stay consistent across the alphabet. The numerals are similarly forceful, with noticeable curvature and tapered ends that match the letterforms, helping figures integrate smoothly in running text and headlines.
