Fingerprint: stormy, young blonde woman in vivid red turtleneck standing waist-deep in churning white surf glancing back over shoulder, small red lighthouse on green headland behind her, huge gold cursive title slashing diagonally across seascape, ten oversized single-digit numerals in different coloured circles arcing down sides, fan of brightly coloured slanted ovals reading Million values, translucent glass with wooden frame

Distinctive

A young blonde woman in a vivid red turtleneck standing waist-deep in churning white surf, glancing back over her shoulder, with a small red lighthouse on a green headland behind her - the only figurative scene on an otherwise entirely numeral-covered backglass. A huge gold cursive word reading Stormy slashes diagonally across the seascape panel in a gold script with a dark outline. Ten oversized single-digit numerals in differently coloured black-ringed circles arc from the top edge down both sides, and a fan of brightly coloured slanted ovals reading 1 Million through 6 Million sits below, split by a green 7 Million bar.

Full description

Translucent backglass in a wooden frame, laid out symmetrically around a central painted seascape panel. The centre panel shows a young blonde woman in a bright red turtleneck sweater, hair blown back, standing waist-deep in foaming turquoise-and-white surf and turning to look over her left shoulder; behind her a red lighthouse sits on a green headland under a blue-and-white streaked sky. Over the panel sits a large flowing gold script word reading Stormy, with a smaller white script name above it. Around the panel, ten large numerals in coloured circles (1 to 10) arc across the top and down both sides, each circle in a different bright colour with a black outline. Below the panel a fan of tilted oval and lozenge plaques reads 1 Million, 2 Million, 3 Million, 4 Million, 5 Million and 6 Million, with a green horizontal bar reading 7 Million between them. The bottom third is a dark score panel of stacked numerals, and beneath it a row of small coloured circles labelled THOUSAND. The outer background is a purple-and-cyan radiating sunburst, with large soft yellow-green concentric circles behind the side numerals.
