Two words, each with a looping opening
The two enlarged openings establish a repeated rhythm across the sample. Compare their size and curvature with the much smaller letters that follow. The first opening also sweeps into the space below the name, so its shape is best read separately from the lower letter band.

Opening, letter body and finish
The opening stays near the height of the body letters. The opening-to-body ratio is 1.09×, while the whole image is 3.52 times as wide as it is tall. The rightmost ink finishes below the writing line; look at this ending separately from the slant of the letters themselves.
Loops and the lower flourish
The sample contains 6 enclosed loops and 2 main ink groups. The letterforms carry the main horizontal movement; there is no long lower underline detected beneath their band.
