A cutout or life-size printed image of a smiling figure seated on a red cushioned sofa with gold-trimmed wooden arms, raising one hand in greeting. The figure wears a yellow-green silk shawl with gold brocade motifs and a matching yellow-green turban, with a red bindi, and a garland of white jasmine and orange-red marigolds. A paper placard in front reads Whyalla Australia. In the foreground, a brass bowl with a repoussé lotus base holds a dark wooden sandal or footwear piece topped with yellow chrysanthemum flowers. The figure appears to be a printed image rather than a physical person, so no physical people are counted.
