A short Le beside a dark connected surname

The small Le group sits separately at the left. A much larger open C starts Corbusier, followed by dark rounded body forms and taller narrow strokes toward the end. Compare the clear word gap with the tighter connections inside the surname: the signature’s strongest emphasis begins after the short opening group.

Opening, letter body and finish

The enlarged opening stands above the smaller letters. The opening-to-body ratio is 2.16×, while the whole image is 5.95 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 3 main ink groups. The letterforms carry the main horizontal movement; there is no long lower underline detected beneath their band.

Le Corbusier’s signature in graphology

Traditional graphology associates an enlarged surname capital with public emphasis. The rounded connected letters give this specimen a flowing rhythm, following a deliberately small and separate first group.

Follow the backward-leaning strokes in this image alongside the enlarged opening. For another perspective on your own writing, the handwriting analysis tool brings slant, size and spacing into a full-page reading.
