Monks Chanting by Canal at Dawn in beside a canal in Wenzhou

Monks Chanting by Canal at Dawn

by Aiden Mercado

Deep shadows swallow the figures of three monks standing in a line beside a quiet canal in Wenzhou. Thin rims of pale morning light outline their saffron and maroon robes, separating them from the dark water. Ground fog pools in the low spaces between the stone embankment and the river, obscuring the base of the scene. The turn of seasons leaves the nearby trees bare and gray, their branches stark against the dim sky. Rough textures of wet stone and damp fabric dominate the foreground. The monks stand still, their hands resting in specific mudra positions, while the fog drifts slowly across the water surface. one drop of condensation slides down the edge of a stone pillar in the immediate foreground.
