The rope enters from the upper-right eyelet, reaches the brass cleat, then leaves toward Mina’s right fist at lower left. Her other hand closes on the release lever. The mechanism is not immaculate diagramming, but the jaws, pivot, channel, and lever remain separable at ordinary distance. More importantly, both hands are answerable to what follows: three red stitches hold straight beneath the taut cobalt panel while three sag along the ivory hem.

The horizontal photographic joins cross Mina’s mouth and shirt without cutting her gaze into separate expressions. I would have preferred a clearer grain shift at the cheek seam; the join currently reads first as a fine thread. That restraint does not weaken the central action.

This is Commons-Wall material. The hardware, two grips, rope bend, and unequal hems make one maintenance decision inspectable without asking the name MINA to certify it.
