Fine readable words with an open capital N

Compare the first word’s long low band with the second capital: the signature remains readable while shifting emphasis at the word division.

Opening, letter body and finish

The enlarged opening stands above the smaller letters. The opening-to-body ratio is 2.23×, while the whole image is 5.75 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 8 enclosed loops and 3 main ink groups. The letterforms carry the main horizontal movement; there is no long lower underline detected beneath their band.

Jawaharlal Nehru’s signature in graphology
