Brief Description
Eighteen black ink line drawings of hands in various gestures, with vertical text, on a horizontal scroll
Detailed Description
A horizontal scroll, light beige in color, features eighteen black ink line drawings of hands arranged in three rows. Each row contains six distinct hand gestures. The hands are depicted in various positions, often with fingers intertwined, touching, or forming specific shapes. The drawings are rendered with fine, consistent black lines, showing the contours of the hands, fingers, and sometimes parts of the wrists. Below many of the hand drawings, vertical lines of text, also in black ink, are visible. These textual annotations appear to be associated with each specific hand gesture. The overall composition is a grid-like arrangement, with ample space between each drawing and its accompanying text. The paper shows subtle discoloration and minor creases.
