" Full-length figure of Mary standing barefoot on a globe. The continents are visible on the globe. She wears a long robe which is belted at the waist and a long head veil which reaches her feet. An emblem is attached to her chest. Her arms are bent and extended out; a rosary drapes from her hands. She has an oriental-style crown on her head which is topped by a cross. The concrete sculpture is constructed over a metal frame. The sculpture stands in the center of an open-sided pagoda structure."
