Farmer Rowing Produce Through Lotus Pads at Cairo Market

by Dominick Barnes

Flat noon light reflects off the dark water of the City of the Dead, illuminating a wooden boat crowded with green leafy vegetables and white lotus pads. A farmer sits low in the vessel, his hands gripping oars that push through the dense aquatic plants. Late summer heat hangs heavy in the air, visible in the dry texture of the lotus leaves and the faded fabric of the farmer's shirt. Dramatic, towering clouds stack above the ancient stone tombs that line the canal banks, their gray undersides against the bright, washed-out sky. The water ripples around the hull, distorting the reflection of the stone structures. At the bow, a single lotus pad rests on the wet wood, its edge curled slightly upward.
