Goldsmith Setting Stone Amid Giant Mushrooms

by Frederick Avery

Crisp high-altitude light cuts through a thin layer of fog in a narrow Ambato bazaar lane, illuminating a goldsmith seated at a wooden bench. The artisan leans forward under a jeweler's loupe, hands steady as they set a gemstone into a ring. Surrounding the workbench on the cobblestone ground, massive mushroom caps spread like open umbrellas, their textured gills visible in sharp detail. The dry season air holds no dust, only the suspended mist catching the late afternoon sun. Beside the goldsmith's tools, a cluster of these oversized fungi rises from the cracks in the stone, their caps casting soft shadows that merge with the shadows of the bench legs. One gill edge glows where the light hits it directly.
