A bold, high-contrast italic serif with pronounced calligraphic stress and crisp, bracketed serifs. Strokes taper sharply into pointed terminals, giving many letters a chiseled, knife-edged finish rather than rounded ends. Proportions are moderately compact with tight inner counters and energetic diagonals, producing a lively rhythm across words. Numerals share the same angled axis and strong thick–thin pattern, reading cleanly and with a slightly display-leaning presence.
This face works especially well for headlines, cover typography, and editorial applications where an italic needs to carry real weight and personality. It can also serve for short-to-medium text such as introductions, pull quotes, or section openers where a dense, authoritative texture is desirable.
The overall tone feels classic and literary, with a formal, editorial voice. Its steep italic posture and sharp terminals add urgency and emphasis, making it feel confident and slightly dramatic while still rooted in traditional book typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice in a stronger, more emphatic italic—pairing classic proportions with sharper terminals and pronounced contrast to create a confident, display-capable text companion.
The uppercase shows clear, old-style italic influence in the curved and diagonal forms, and the lowercase maintains strong word-shape thanks to consistent slant and emphatic entry/exit strokes. In longer lines, the dense color and tight counters create a rich texture that rewards generous sizes and comfortable line spacing.
