Opening, letter body and finish
The enlarged opening stands above the smaller letters. The opening-to-body ratio is 2.79×, while the whole image is 5.46 times as wide as it is tall. The rightmost ink finishes above the writing line; look at this ending separately from the slant of the letters themselves.
Loops and the lower flourish
The sample contains 3 enclosed loops and 2 main ink groups. The letterforms carry the main horizontal movement; there is no long lower underline detected beneath their band.
