Blacksmith Quenches Blade in Beijing Loft

by Bobby Randall

Dust motes hang suspended in the warm, golden beams filtering through sheer curtains that drape the high warehouse windows. A blacksmith, viewed from behind, lowers a glowing red steel bar into a deep wooden trough filled with dark water. A thick plume of white steam erupts upward, catching the first light of early autumn morning. The rough texture of the smith's leather apron contrasts with the smooth, wet wood of the trough. Deep shadows pool in the corners of the loft, while the red heat of the metal casts an orange glow on the damp floor nearby. The steam swirls against the cool gray air before dissipating near the ceiling.
