Well, I guess this could be considered OT - or mannerisms are a part of fashion 
-

I know someone here knows this...where or how do I find information on the hand 
positions in artwork???  These are a few links below for examples...the one I 
was really thinking of was where the hand is held up and the forefinger touches 
the thumb....of course I can't find a picture of it right now.  It seems to me 
that I remember it as a typical gesture in the paintings of Christ and/or the 
Madonna.
