A large, internally illuminated, red-orange Chinese lantern hangs against a dark night background in Accra, Ghana. The spherical lantern's surface displays black line art, including a central depiction of Hotei (the 'Laughing Buddha') flanked by two carp. Chinese characters are present; gold script on the left translates to "ushering in wealth and prosperity," while a prominent black character on the right is "恭" (gōng), part of common greetings like "恭喜发财" (congratulations and be prosperous). Tassels and small red cylindrical ornaments are suspended from the lantern's lower edge. To the left, a segment of a utility pole is visible, adorned with multiple dark wires and a light-colored, indeterminate object hanging from its side. A bright, out-of-focus circular light source is present in the lower-left quadrant of the frame.
