A compact, italic serif with pronounced calligraphic modulation and clear diagonal stress. Strokes show strong thick–thin contrast, with crisp, bracketed serifs and pointed, angled terminals that give the forms a sharpened silhouette. Counters are relatively tight and the joins are energetic, creating a dense, rhythmic texture in paragraphs. Proportions lean slightly condensed in feel, with sturdy capitals and a moderately sized x-height that keeps the lowercase compact and punchy.
Well suited for editorial typography where an expressive italic is needed for headlines, standfirsts, pull quotes, or emphasized passages. It can also serve as a distinctive choice for book interiors in larger text settings, chapter openers, and refined branding where a classic serif voice with added dynamism is appropriate.
The overall tone is traditional and assertive, evoking classic book typography with a more dramatic, expressive slant. It reads as cultured and formal, with a slightly theatrical edge from the sharp terminals and high contrast. The italic energy adds motion and emphasis, making the voice feel persuasive and editorial.
Likely drawn to deliver a conventional serif foundation with heightened italic character—combining classical serif construction with sharper terminals and strong modulation to create emphasis, elegance, and a confident page color.
At display sizes the wedge-like serifs and tapered curves become a defining feature, while at text sizes the dark color and tight spacing create a strong, authoritative presence. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast construction and appear well suited to running text and headings where a unified texture is desired.
