A slanted serif with an oldstyle skeleton and gently bracketed serifs, showing smooth, pen-informed curves and moderate modulation without sharp contrast. The italic construction is evident in the flowing entry/exit strokes and the rhythmic, forward-leaning stance across both capitals and lowercase. Counters are open and rounded, terminals tend toward subtle teardrops or softened points, and numerals share the same cursive-leaning, text-oriented feel rather than rigid lining geometry.
Well-suited for long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where an italic text face is needed for emphasis, citations, pull quotes, or literary passages. It can also serve comfortably in refined branding or invitations when a classic serif italic tone is desired without overt ornament.
The overall tone is bookish and cultivated, with a classic, editorial voice that feels calm and intelligent. Its italic movement adds elegance and a conversational warmth while remaining formal enough for traditional typography.
Likely designed as a conventional serif italic for text typography, prioritizing smooth reading rhythm and a traditional, humanist texture. The intention appears to balance calligraphic liveliness with disciplined, familiar letterforms for dependable editorial use.
Capital forms appear relatively restrained and classical, avoiding flashy swashes, while the lowercase carries most of the expressiveness through curved joins and tapered terminals. Spacing in the sample text reads even and text-friendly, supporting continuous reading rather than display punctuation.
