A slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a calligraphic, right-leaning rhythm with tapered terminals and sharp joins, giving counters a slightly teardrop quality in places. Uppercase proportions feel traditional and sturdy, while the lowercase is compact with a moderate x-height and energetic entry/exit strokes. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with clear curves and strong vertical emphasis for an overall polished, print-like texture.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine features, book titles, and section openers where an italic voice is needed with strong presence. It also fits formal communications—programs, invitations, and branded collateral—where a traditional serif feel with added dynamism is desirable.
The font conveys a classic, literary tone—formal and confident, with a sense of motion from the italic slant. Its high-contrast strokes and sharp details feel refined and editorial, suggesting tradition and seriousness rather than casual friendliness.
The design appears intended as a robust italic serif that can carry emphasis without losing traditional structure. By pairing high contrast with sturdy serifs and a controlled slant, it aims to deliver a classic typographic voice that remains expressive and highly legible in prominent text settings.
Stroke contrast remains consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, producing a dark, authoritative color in text. Curved letters (like O/Q and g) emphasize smooth, flowing bowls, while diagonals and arms (as in K, V, W, and y) keep a crisp, slightly calligraphic bite that helps the design feel lively at display and subhead sizes.
