A bold italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and strongly bracketed, wedge-like serifs. The letterforms show a forward-leaning, calligraphic construction: rounded shapes are slightly squashed, terminals are often beaked, and diagonals carry a lively, carved feel. Counters are relatively tight and the joins are sturdy, creating dense color and strong word shapes. Numerals and capitals share the same energetic slant and heavy, sculpted strokes, giving the set a cohesive, punchy rhythm in both display lines and short text blocks.
Well suited to headlines, deck copy, pull quotes, and other editorial display settings where a strong italic presence is desirable. It can also serve branding and packaging needs that call for a classic serif voice with extra momentum and impact.
The overall tone feels forceful and attention-grabbing, with a classic, old-style flavor sharpened into a more theatrical, headline-ready voice. Its strong slant and high stroke contrast add motion and emphasis, suggesting confidence and a slightly nostalgic, poster-like character.
The design appears aimed at delivering a conventional serif foundation with heightened drama: a bold italic meant to amplify emphasis, add speed to lines of text, and create memorable, high-contrast word shapes for display typography.
In the sample text, the italic angle and weight produce a compact texture that reads best with generous line spacing and moderate tracking. The boldness and brisk serifs create crisp silhouettes at larger sizes, while smaller sizes may benefit from careful spacing to avoid counters filling in.
