This serif italic shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with crisp, tapered terminals and bracketed serifs that read as cut rather than rounded. The overall stance is noticeably forward-leaning, with lively stroke entry/exit angles and a slightly calligraphic rhythm. Capitals are broad and sturdy with strong vertical stress, while lowercase forms keep compact apertures and pointed joins that emphasize contrast. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with sharp, angled finishing strokes and bold main stems.
It suits editorial headlines, standfirsts, pull quotes, and cover typography where contrast and italic motion can be a feature. It can also work for short passages or emphasized text in print layouts, especially when generous spacing and size help the sharp details stay clear.
The tone feels traditional and literary, with a dramatic, high-contrast elegance that suggests prestige and formality. Its slanted, energetic motion adds a sense of urgency and sophistication, making it feel at home in editorial and cultural contexts rather than purely utilitarian settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif voice with heightened contrast and an expressive italic, balancing traditional proportions with a more theatrical, attention-grabbing stroke treatment for impactful typography.
Several glyphs show subtly flared or wedge-like ends and small, sharp serif feet that enhance sparkle at display sizes. The texture in running text is dark and assertive, with strong emphasis on verticals and clear italic movement across words.
