A robust italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and wedge-like, bracketed serifs. The forms show a lively, calligraphic rhythm: curved joins, softly swelling strokes, and angled terminals that keep counters open while maintaining dense color. Uppercase letters feel stately and slightly condensed in stance, while lowercase shapes are more fluid, with rounded bowls and energetic diagonals. Numerals and punctuation match the same assertive stroke weight and italic momentum, giving the face a cohesive, display-leaning texture even in paragraph settings.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, book and magazine typography, and cover titling where an assertive italic serif can carry personality. It also works effectively for pull quotes, introductions, and short passages that benefit from a classic, emphatic voice.
The overall tone is traditional and confident, with a bookish, editorial presence. Its strong contrast and emphatic italic slant lend a dramatic, rhetorical voice—suggesting heritage, seriousness, and a touch of flourish rather than minimal neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif foundation with heightened italic expression—combining traditional proportions and serifs with stronger contrast and weight for impact in contemporary editorial and display contexts.
The italic construction is consistent across cases, creating continuous forward motion in words. The heavy stems and crisp serifs produce a dark, emphatic page color, making it feel more at home at moderate-to-large sizes than in very small text.
