The illustration depicts a lively and bustling living room where a Chinese family of six, nestled comfortably on a large, ornately carved wooden sofa, welcomes the New Year. This sofa, with its intricate floral carvings, spans the center of the room. The father, sporting a warm, red cashmere sweater, sits on one end with a gentle, joyful expression as he pours tea into small porcelain cups decorated with golden dragons. Next to him, the mother, wrapped in a delicate jade green silk scarf, holds a bowl of freshly peeled oranges, their citrus aroma filling the air. Their teenage daughter, wearing stylish glasses and a bright yellow turtleneck, is leaning forward with excitement as she holds a sparkling popper, ready to burst in jubilation. To her right, her younger sister, wearing a vibrant pink cardigan, is giggling at the two younger boys. The two boys, both with glasses, are engaged in an animated, playful tug-of-war with a long, red-and-gold dragon-themed scarf, their laughter illuminating the room.

The family’s reflection is captured in a large oval mirror on the wall, adorned with a gilded frame reminiscent of Arthur Rackham’s whimsical designs. Behind the family, the room is filled with decorations inspired by Maurice Sendak, including paper lanterns in various shades of crimson and gold, and intricate paper cut-outs of animals scattered around the room, giving a nod to the upcoming Chinese zodiac sign. A Beatrix Potter-inspired painting of a quaint countryside landscape hangs beside the mirror, adding a gentle touch of serenity.

In the backdrop, a large bay window reveals the soft glow of moonlight, where "Happy New Year Everyone!" is written in delicate fireworks-like sparkles in the sky, a nod to Maxfield Parrish’s ethereal lighting. A small Chinese pagoda-shaped shelf by the window displays family photos and a small bonsai tree, creating a cozy atmosphere.

Above, the ceiling is lined with paper chains and stars twinkling like those in Gustave Doré’s celestial illustrations, casting subtle shadows on the walls. The entire scene is a delightful amalgamation of details, each piece contributing to a heartwarming and festive family gathering.
