Ketanji on the High Wire

A woman with dark hair and round glasses balances on one foot atop a tightrope, holding a red-and-white striped parasol overhead in one hand and a matching star-patterned fan in the other. She wears a camouflage-patterned robe with white-striped sleeves and a black underlayer, and stands en pointe above two open-mouthed alligators rendered in olive-green and white. Silhouetted acrobats tumble through a star-flecked cream sky in the background; the palette is limited to cream, black, olive green, red, and white. William Evertson, "Ketanji on the High Wire," 2024, color woodblock.
