:)  I cheated.

There's a website that identifies fonst from uploaded images. It's 
sponsored by MyFonts, and the results can be ... erratic.  In this 
case it happened to be a major commercial font that they sell, so it 
identified it right off the bat.

The site needs a good image, and doesn't work at all if the letters 
touch each other. Occasionally it gives completely off-the-wall results!

I hadn't visited Fabrizio's site in quite a while, so your request 
triggered a visit where serendipity found that your actual text was 
one he's showing off in his portfolio.
