An oblique slab serif with sturdy, squared serifs and a firm, even stroke color. The letterforms show controlled curvature and modest modulation, with broad proportions and open counters that keep the texture readable at size. Serifs are prominent and mostly flat-ended, with subtle bracketing where strokes meet, giving a solid, anchored feel. The italic construction is clearly drawn (not merely slanted), with a smooth forward rhythm, compact joins, and streamlined terminals across both uppercase and lowercase.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book interiors, and magazine typography where an italic with authority is needed for emphasis, sidebars, and pull quotes. Its strong slab serifs and broad shapes also make it effective in short headlines, packaging copy, and brand systems that want a traditional yet assertive typographic voice.
The overall tone is confident and editorial, blending a traditional bookish voice with a slightly brisk, contemporary italic energy. It reads as serious and cultivated rather than playful, suggesting commentary, literature, and formal communication.
The design appears intended to provide a robust, legible italic companion with pronounced slabs—combining a classic serif foundation with a clear forward cadence for emphasis and hierarchy in professional typography.
Uppercase forms maintain a steady, disciplined presence, while the lowercase italic introduces more motion and personality, especially in curved letters. Numerals match the same sturdy serifed language, reinforcing a cohesive, print-minded character across text and display sizes.
