Description
Four white firework bursts of varying size hang against a dark, textured night sky above a mountain silhouette, one peak faintly cone-shaped in the distance; a body of water below reflects streaks of dark red light. There are no human figures; the composition is symmetrical and vertical, dominated by tones of black, grey, and white with a narrow band of muted warm color at the horizon. *Winter Firework*, a 2018 mezzotint by Katsunori Hamanishi.
