Description
A single large firework burst dominates the dark blue-gray night sky, its pale gold and white sparks radiating downward in a dense, drooping dome shape with a bright white-orange flash at its core and a long trailing streak beneath it. Below, a dark mountain silhouette and a cluster of small illuminated buildings occupy the lower portion of the composition, rendered in muted blues against the night. *Fall Fireworks*, a mezzotint by Katsunori Hamanishi, 2019.
