This typeface is a slanted serif with a calligraphic rhythm and moderate stroke modulation. Letterforms show bracketed serifs and tapered joins, with diagonally stressed ovals and gently angled terminals that reinforce the forward motion. Proportions feel traditionally bookish, with a relatively compact lowercase and smoothly drawn ascenders and descenders; italics are clearly constructed rather than cursive, keeping counters open and shapes stable. Numerals follow the same humanist flow, with curving forms and angled details that match the text color.
It suits extended reading in books and editorial layouts where an italic serif is needed for emphasis, quotations, or subheads while preserving a classic text feel. It also works well for formal announcements and refined branding applications that benefit from a traditional, cultured tone.
Overall, it conveys a classic, literary tone—polished and slightly ceremonial without feeling overly ornate. The slant and soft modulation add warmth and movement, suggesting editorial sophistication and a timeless, traditional voice.
The font appears designed to provide a dependable, conventional serif voice with an italic that carries clear calligraphic influence. Its intention seems focused on producing graceful emphasis and elegant text setting, balancing readability with a refined, traditional character.
The design maintains an even texture in paragraphs, with clear differentiation between similar forms (notably the italic-like, curved constructions in the lowercase) and a consistent serif treatment across caps, lowercase, and figures. The ampersand is notably expressive and calligraphic, fitting the font’s refined, old-style sensibility.
