This typeface is a slanted serif with sculpted, flaring stroke endings and a distinctly drawn, calligraphic rhythm. Stems taper and swell with pronounced modulation, creating energetic silhouettes and strong black-and-white patterning. Serifs are wedge-like and often bracketed into the stems, with sharp terminals and occasional hooked or beaked finishes in letters like a, f, j, and y. The lowercase shows compact counters and a classic two-storey a, while the numerals are sturdy and expressive, with noticeable angled stress and dynamic curves.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, cover typography, posters, and magazine or editorial titles where its animated serif shapes can be appreciated. It can also work for branding and short passages at larger sizes, especially when a classic, expressive voice is desired.
The overall tone feels dramatic and old-world, combining a literary, editorial seriousness with a touch of theatrical flair. Its slanted posture and flared terminals add motion and personality, suggesting a vintage, story-driven voice rather than a neutral one.
The design appears intended to evoke a traditional, print-rooted feel while adding motion through a slanted axis and flared, calligraphy-informed terminals. It prioritizes character and punch in larger text, aiming for a distinctive, dramatic texture on the page.
Verticals feel slightly carved and chiseled, while curves (C, G, S, 2, 3) show lively tension and tight apertures. The capitals present strong, tapered forms with assertive diagonals (V, W, X) and a somewhat condensed, upright presence that contrasts with the more cursive energy of the lowercase.
