Description A note on harps, for artists: I've noticed other harpist stock where harps are not held correctly and fingering is a little off. I'm not criticising, as the models probably had no idea. The only reason I bring this up is because I know a lot of artists, myself included, like to have everything as accurate as possible in their art. The harp is always leaned against the right shoulder with the right hand playing the high, upper strings, and the left hand playing the lower strings. For that reason, I highly recommend not reversing the image if you're into accuracy. Pinkie fingers are never used as they're too weak to produce a very good sound. Thumbs are kept higher when on the strings than the rest of the fingers so they don't run into each other while playing. Sometimes though, thumbs can look lower if their string has already been plucked. 
 There! Now you know something about harps!
