This is a high-contrast italic serif with sharp, wedge-like serifs and distinctly calligraphic construction. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation and angled stress, with crisp terminals and a slightly forward-leaning, energetic rhythm. Capitals are relatively compact and sculpted, while lowercase forms are more fluid, featuring narrow joins, tapered entry/exit strokes, and occasional swash-like details (notably in letters such as f, j, y). Numerals follow the same italic logic, mixing open curves and sharp triangular serifs for a cohesive text color.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and pull quotes where an italic with strong personality is desirable. It also fits formal contexts like invitations and announcements, and can serve effectively in branding or packaging when a classic, polished serif voice is needed.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, evoking classic book typography with a refined, cultivated voice. Its lively slant and brisk contrast add a sense of movement and elegance, making it feel expressive without becoming decorative.
The font appears designed to provide a conventional text-serif foundation while offering an italic that feels genuinely drawn rather than mechanically slanted. Its intention seems to balance readability with expressive, high-contrast detailing for refined setting in running text and prominent emphasis.
The design maintains a consistent diagonal cadence across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, with pointed details that read especially clearly at display and subhead sizes. Curves are smoothly drawn, but many joins and terminals resolve into firm angles, giving the face a crisp, slightly dramatic finish.
