Conjectures about the “man without attributes” ( f85r2 )
#12
The harmless gesture is intended to redirect the attention to the other side of the illustration.

The Man without Attributes is the Man of Knowledge - the poet, philosopher, scientist of that era.

Considering that the basis of knowledge, characterized by the 'Four Elements Theory', was a complete fabrication. The Man of Knowledge is appropriately and ambiguously pointing at nothing.
