The scene depicts an interior lantern market or shop located in Hội An Ward, Vietnam. In the immediate foreground, a person, largely obscured and wearing a dark long-sleeved shirt, holds a teal-colored, teardrop-shaped lantern featuring vertical gold stripe patterns and a dark red tassel with a black bead. The person's right hand, adorned with multiple rings, grips the lantern's metal hook. The environment is dominated by a dense display of various traditional lanterns of diverse shapes, sizes, and colors (including red, yellow, blue, and multi-patterned designs) hanging from a light-colored ceiling illuminated by fluorescent strip lights. Several other individuals are present in the midground and background: a person in a grey t-shirt and dark shorts; another person wearing a long, yellow traditional Vietnamese tunic (áo dài) over dark pants; and a person in a light blue shirt and black shorts holding a white object. The floor is light-colored, possibly concrete, with visible grid lines. Red stools and white cylindrical bins are visible on the right side of the frame.
