Outdoor scene at a compound with a white building bearing a sign in Kannada script and a framed portrait on its wall, palm trees behind. Several men in white dhotis and white kurtas, some with orange and yellow shawls, stand on a dusty ground covered with spent firecracker paper. In the centre a man in white holds a lit firecracker or sparkler, sending up smoke and sparks, while a man in an orange robe beside him leans in and another in white holds a red cloth. A crowd of people in white and yellow clothes watches from behind. No figure is clearly identifiable as a person from appearance; the scene shows Diwali celebration with crackers.
