A high-contrast italic serif with strongly tapered strokes and pronounced thick–thin transitions. Serifs are bracketed and wedge-like, flowing naturally from the stems, and many joins show calligraphic modulation rather than purely geometric construction. The italic slant is assertive, with rounded counters and slightly compact apertures that keep the texture dark and continuous. Capitals are broad and weighty, while lowercase forms feature energetic entry/exit strokes and occasional swash-like terminals, producing a lively, engraved look in running text.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, magazine features, and pull quotes where a strong italic voice is desired. It can also work for book covers, theatrical or classical event materials, and brand marks that want a traditional serif with heightened drama and movement. The bold, high-contrast rhythm favors medium-to-large sizes, especially where texture and emphasis are important.
The tone is traditionally literary and editorial, with a dramatic, old-world flair. Its dense color and sharp modulation feel confident and ceremonial, suggesting heritage print aesthetics and formal storytelling. The italic energy adds motion and emphasis, making it feel expressive rather than purely utilitarian.
Likely designed to deliver a forceful italic serif voice that feels rooted in classic print traditions while remaining assertive for modern display. The strong modulation, bracketed serifs, and animated terminals suggest an emphasis on expressive emphasis and editorial impact rather than quiet neutrality.
The figures appear lining and sturdy, matching the weight and contrast of the letters, and the overall spacing reads generous enough for display but still cohesive in paragraph samples. Curved letters (like C, G, S, and the italic lowercase) show smooth, continuous modulation that reinforces a refined, print-oriented rhythm.
