Image description:
A framed print depicting the outlines of men who are grouped together, standing and sitting. Each figure has its own color. The outlines are green, yellow, black, blue, red, and purple. The outline of a desk stands among them, supporting a small rectangular object that one of the men appears to be touching with a roughly oval object he holds in one hand. A line runs up from each figure to a hand-written word that hovers above them. The words are hard to read, but it can be seen that one of the men in the middle is labeled “John Hancock” (written by Andrea Noonoo).
