image: Majors Hands by Karen Buster

(Visual description: Majors Hands is a black-and-white giclee print measuring 18 inches by 24 inches showing a profile close-up of two hands plucking a harp’s strings. The frame shows a portion of the harp’s body, including a glimpse of the curved neck at its top. Our view of the left hand, which is closest to us, also features the black cuff of a shirt sleeve which has a pattern of small vertical and horizontal white lines. The details of the harp and hands are illuminated in white, as if the scene was lit by a dramatic light.)
