A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered hairlines and weighty, rounded main strokes. The serifs are finely shaped and largely bracketed, with a lively, calligraphic stress that produces strong diagonal rhythm across words. Curves are generous and slightly condensed in places, while joins and terminals often finish in pointed, flicked shapes; several letters show ball-like terminals that add a polished, traditional feel. Numerals match the text color and slant, with clear thick–thin modulation and crisp finishing details.
This style fits best in display and editorial contexts where contrast and italic movement are assets: magazine and newspaper features, book jackets, cultural posters, and brand or campaign titles. It can also work for pull quotes and short standfirsts where a rich, classical tone is desired.
The overall tone is refined and theatrical, combining old-style bookish familiarity with a confident, headline-ready flourish. Its slanted posture and pronounced contrast create a sense of motion and ceremony, lending a distinctly editorial, high-end voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with heightened italic expressiveness, emphasizing dramatic thick–thin modeling, crisp finishing, and a strong, continuous slant for impactful text and headings.
In the sample text the italic angle and contrast remain consistent over long lines, producing a smooth texture while keeping distinctive silhouettes. The lowercase shows pronounced entry/exit strokes and occasional swash-like forms that increase personality and presence at larger sizes.
