A small golden-bronze figure of a standing man stands on a pedestal in front of an ornate gilded backdrop with repoussé floral and scroll patterns and a large halo-like arch. The figure wears a deep red turban with a small pearl and red-bead ornament, a pearl necklace layered with a red floral pendant and a large white stone pendant, and a teal-blue wrap. Its right hand is raised in blessing. Pink rose petals are scattered on a gold-rimmed square tray in front of it. A printed white card on the tray reads Whyalla Australia. To the left, a framed picture shows a deity with a red-and-gold decorated figure. Red and maroon patterned fabric covers the table. The figure is a statue, not a physical person, and the appearance-based cues are not sufficient to identify a candidate.
