Artisan Working in Beirut
Flat noon light washes over a cramped workshop in Beirut’s Achrafieh district, illuminating glossy enamel surfaces of stacked white ceramic plates resting on a scarred wooden counter. A man in a faded blue apron holds a brayer, pressing it against a sheet of patterned paper, while a bone folder lies nearby beside a clay pot used for water. The scene is cluttered with tools of trade, including a hacksaw tucked into a shelf, against the vibrant colors of a patterned rug draped over a chair in the background. Sunlight reflects off the smooth enamel, highlighting the texture of the paper and the rough wood, creating a lively, functional space where traditional craftsmanship meets the heat of the day.
