This Japanese artwork depicts a crowded festival or gathering scene, rendered in a vibrant color palette. The composition shows a dense crowd in traditional Japanese dress, with distinctive black hair styles characteristic of the period. In the background, red lanterns and decorative banners hang between trees with pale blue-green foliage. A large orange-red lantern dominates the upper portion of the scene. The crowd fills the lower two-thirds of the image, creating a sea of figures in colorful kimonos, most notably a bright red one that stands out among the others. The painting employs a flat perspective typical of traditional Japanese art, with figures arranged in overlapping layers. The overall atmosphere suggests a festive public celebration, perfectly capturing the "crowded sports" reference in the title.
