A slanted serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a measured, medium-contrast stroke pattern. Curves are smooth and slightly calligraphic, with tapered terminals and a consistent diagonal stress that keeps counters open and legible. Capitals feel sturdy and traditional, while the lowercase shows a more fluid rhythm and a gentle forward motion; overall spacing reads even in text, with a lively, slightly varied texture that avoids looking rigid.
This font is well-suited to editorial and book typography where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, titles, or pull quotes. It also fits magazine layouts and refined branding applications that benefit from a traditional serif character with a graceful forward slant.
The overall tone is classic and literary, suggesting established editorial typography rather than overt display styling. Its italic slant and refined detailing add a sense of elegance and movement, supporting a formal, cultivated voice.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable serif italic that balances traditional proportions with a slightly calligraphic liveliness. Its aim seems to be dependable text performance while providing an elegant, expressive italic tone for longer passages and emphasis.
Numerals share the same slanted, serifed construction and maintain clear differentiation, contributing to a cohesive text color across mixed content. The sample text shows a steady reading rhythm, with enough sharpness in joins and serifs to stay crisp while still feeling smooth in continuous lines.
