A slanted serif with pronounced contrast between thick stems and thin hairlines, featuring crisp, bracketed serifs and a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Curves are full and slightly swollen, while terminals often end in sharp, tapered points that accentuate the italic movement. Proportions feel generously set with open counters and sturdy capitals, and the figures follow the same energetic, angled construction for a cohesive texture at display and text sizes.
Well-suited to editorial typography, book and longform settings that benefit from a traditional serif voice, and prominent headings where the italic motion adds emphasis. It can also serve in formal announcements and packaging or poster work that wants a classic, print-forward impression with heightened energy.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with a confident, slightly dramatic flair. Its italic energy and sculpted serifs evoke traditional print typography—serious and polished, but with enough motion to feel expressive rather than strictly reserved.
Likely designed to deliver a conventional serif foundation with a more expressive, calligraphy-informed italic character, balancing readability with a distinctive, emphatic presence for both text and display roles.
Capitals read as strong and stable, while lowercase forms introduce more pronounced entry/exit strokes and pointed terminals, creating a clear hierarchy and a textured line. The design maintains consistent stress and stroke modulation across letters and numerals, supporting even color despite the vigorous slant.
