This typeface is a high-contrast serif with a pronounced rightward slant and crisp, bracketed wedge serifs. Strokes move from thick verticals to fine hairlines with a distinctly calligraphic modulation, producing sharp terminals and taut curves. The forms feel slightly compact with assertive capitals and narrower joins, while lowercase letters show energetic entry/exit strokes and a generally rounded, steady rhythm. Numerals share the same contrast and italic movement, with strong thick–thin transitions and clean, tapered endings.
Well suited to headlines, book and magazine typography, and other editorial contexts where a classic serif voice and emphatic italics are desirable. It can work effectively for pull quotes and short-to-medium passages, and it also fits branding or packaging that benefits from a traditional, authoritative feel.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with an old-style editorial elegance that reads as confident and cultivated. Its italic energy adds motion and emphasis, giving text a persuasive, slightly dramatic voice without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif foundation infused with italic dynamism—combining sharp contrast, refined serifs, and a disciplined structure to create an elegant, attention-holding text and display companion.
In continuous text, the strong contrast and angled stress create a clear typographic color and a pronounced texture, especially in mixed-case settings. Capitals appear sturdy and monumental, while the lowercase maintains a lively cadence through its slanted stems and sharp finishing strokes.
