A high-contrast serif italic with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, tapered serifs. The overall rhythm is lively and right-leaning, with rounded joins and occasional calligraphic cues in the curves and terminals. Counters stay fairly open for an italic serif, while the capitals read dignified and robust, and the lowercase shows energetic entry/exit strokes and a noticeable diagonal stress.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, book and magazine titling, and brand statements that benefit from a classic, authoritative italic. It can also work for invitations, cultural posters, and packaging where a traditional serif italic adds sophistication. For longer passages, it is likely best used as an accent style (e.g., emphasis or short blocks) rather than dense continuous text.
This typeface conveys a confident, literary tone with a touch of old‑world refinement. Its italic energy and crisp contrast give it a persuasive, editorial voice that can feel both formal and slightly theatrical depending on setting.
The design appears intended to deliver emphatic, elegant typography with a traditional serif foundation and italic dynamism. It prioritizes strong contrast and expressive terminals to create presence and hierarchy, especially where a refined, classic voice is desired.
The numerals appear robust and old-style in feel, matching the italic movement and contrast of the letters. Several lowercase forms show generous curves and distinct terminals, contributing to a textured, expressive color in paragraphs.
