This typeface is a slanted, high-contrast serif with strongly bracketed serifs and a pronounced calligraphic rhythm. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation with diagonal stress, and many joins and terminals feel gently sculpted rather than mechanical. Counters are relatively open for the weight, while curves are full and slightly condensed by the italic slant. The lowercase includes single-storey forms (notably a and g) with teardrop/ball-like terminals, and the numerals read as oldstyle figures with ascenders and descenders that reinforce a traditional text color.
It fits well in editorial settings such as magazines, books, and long-form articles where a classic serif voice is desired. The bold, high-contrast italic makes a strong choice for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and typographic emphasis within otherwise regular text.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, with a confident, slightly dramatic presence. Its italic energy and strong contrast suggest a literary, cultivated voice suited to emphasis and refined messaging rather than neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, bookish serif structure with a lively italic character and elevated contrast, balancing tradition with expressive emphasis for editorial typography.
The italic slant is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, producing an even forward movement in text. Capitals feel sturdy and authoritative, while the lowercase introduces more humanist warmth through rounded terminals and flowing curves.
