Oil on canvas

Painting of a close up of two hands with fingers splayed open and touching one another. On the ring finger of the left hand is a dark ring with a large stone. The hands are wrinkled and old, and the fingernails are long with the whites standing out. Behind the hands is a dark landscape with a blue-gray sunlit sky. A figure is seen standing in the crook where two fingers from each hand cross and make a square, with the figure standing in the sunlight.
