My roommate had this sitting in her room and offered for me to examine the fonts. I like the idea the designer had in mind, but I do not feel like the composition is very successful. The font appears to be Traditional Serif, where the stroke is rather calligraphic and stroke contrast. It has bracketed serifs and bulbous terminals. The top part to each section is in normal font, while the underlying font is in italics. I believe if the designer had made the normal fonts the same size, rather than making the first letter slightly larger, the composition may have more success. The italicized words do not line up well with large letter and seem to hang off awkwardly. Also, because most of the italicized words are smaller than the normal fonts, the large italic "Peace" seems to stand out oddly.
