Grating Spices in Luxor in in Luxor, Egypt

Grating Spices in Luxor

by Kathleen Johns

Under the flat, diffuse light of an overcast midday, a weathered stone doorway in Luxor frames a narrow alleyway where daily life unfolds. A local man in a white galabeya sits on a low stool, his hands busy with a small brass grater, likely preparing spices for a nearby tea stall. Beside him, a stack of glazed ceramic tiles leans against the rough masonry, their turquoise glaze muted by the gray sky. An ashtray filled with cigarette butts rests on a wooden crate, while a scuffed painted wood shutter hangs slightly ajar, revealing glimpses of a dim interior.
