A sturdy italic serif with compact proportions and clearly bracketed, wedge-like serifs. Strokes are weighty with moderate contrast, and the slant is assertive, giving the forms a forward drive. Curves are full and slightly compressed, while joins and terminals stay crisp, producing a dark, continuous texture in text. Figures follow the same italic construction, with rounded forms and angled stress that keeps the set visually cohesive.
This face is well suited to editorial settings where italic is used for emphasis—headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and callouts. Its strong, dark rhythm also makes it a good choice for short blocks of magazine or brochure text, and for bold typographic statements in posters or covers where a classic serif voice is desired.
The overall tone reads traditional but vigorous: familiar bookish shapes paired with a pronounced, punchy italic stance. It feels confident and emphatic rather than delicate, with a momentum that suggests urgency and impact while staying rooted in classic serif conventions.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif reading experience with a more forceful, attention-grabbing italic, pairing traditional structures with a heavier, more emphatic presence for display-forward typography.
In running text the color is dense and even, favoring emphasis and presence over airy refinement. The italic angle and strong serifs create distinctive word shapes that hold up well at larger sizes and for short lines where the slant can do expressive work.
