A small written name with emphasis at the right
Closely joined forms compress the long name into a relatively low band. The larger final capital interrupts that rhythm near the right edge, followed by a curved ending. Follow the small forms first, then compare how much space the final section adds to the specimen.

Opening, letter body and finish
The opening stays near the height of the body letters. The opening-to-body ratio is 1.29×, while the whole image is 4.70 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 7 main ink groups. The letterforms carry the main horizontal movement; there is no long lower underline detected beneath their band.
