I'm not exactly certain what possessed me to take this photo, but I'm really glad I did. Micah and I were visiting the Art Gallery of NSW with our roommates and we were all working our way towards the absolutely stunning The visit of the Queen of Sheba to King Solomon when we came upon this in a display case. I'm fairly certain the boys spent more time looking at this engraving than at the painting the engraving was based upon.All this said, there was something about the way my roommate's hand looked reflected off of the glass of the case that caught my eye. Not the most romantic picture, but it fascinates me none the less.

Agreed. I also like how, without context, the fist could either be a clench or resting.
