A robust italic serif with a strong, dark color and clearly bracketed serifs. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation and a consistent forward slant, with gently tapered joins and occasional teardrop-like terminals. Proportions feel traditional and compact, with sturdy capitals and lively lowercase forms that maintain clear differentiation and a steady rhythm in text.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, subheads, magazine layouts, book covers, and emphatic pull quotes where a bold italic voice is desirable. It can also work for short editorial passages or lead-ins when a strong, traditional serif italic is needed for contrast and hierarchy.
The overall tone is confident and editorial, combining classic bookish cues with energetic motion from the italic angle. Its weight and sharpness lend an assertive, headline-ready presence while still reading as grounded and traditional.
The design appears intended to provide a forceful, classic italic companion for editorial typography—delivering strong emphasis with traditional serif detailing and a steady, readable rhythm at larger sizes.
The figures appear oldstyle-leaning in spirit, with varied widths and curved forms that match the italic texture. In text, the heavy weight tightens whitespace and increases emphasis, making the face feel punchy and attention-forward.
