Copper Pots and Hearth in Candlelit Abbey Nave

by Malcolm Allen

Honey-colored light pours through high windows into the stone nave of a Sumbe abbey, illuminating rows of polished copper pots stacked near a wood-burning hearth. The metal surfaces reflect the flickering candlelight and the warm glow of the dry season air. Rough stone walls rise into deep shadows, framing the cooking area within the vast sacred space. Dust motes drift slowly in the shafts of light. A heavy wooden beam overhead creates a natural frame around the hearth. The copper pots gleam with a soft, burnished luster against the cool gray stone. One shadow stretches long across the flagstones from the edge of the hearth.
