An italic serif with a calligraphic, right-leaning construction and crisp, bracketed wedge serifs. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation and a smooth, continuous rhythm that reads like an oldstyle italic rather than a sharp modern. Uppercase forms are slightly condensed with tapered terminals and strong diagonal stress; the lowercase has fluid joins, single-storey a and g, and a narrow, energetic cursive texture. Numerals follow the same slanted, serifed logic with traditional, text-like proportions and tapered endings, producing an even, literary color in paragraphs.
Well suited for continuous-reading contexts where an italic is needed for emphasis, citations, or inline foreign phrases, as well as for editorial headlines and pull quotes. It also works effectively for literary titling and formal invitations or programs where a traditional serif italic tone is desired.
The overall tone is classical and bookish, with a distinctly editorial feel. Its italic voice is expressive without becoming decorative, suggesting tradition, refinement, and a confident, scholarly cadence.
The font appears designed to provide a dependable, traditionally modeled serif italic for text and editorial typography, balancing calligraphic movement with controlled contrast for sustained readability.
The design maintains consistent slant and serif treatment across caps, lowercase, and figures, which helps sustain a cohesive line texture. Curves are generous and slightly open, while terminals tend to finish in tapered wedges that keep the letterforms crisp at display sizes.
