Night Baker at Kathmandu Market Doorway Sunset

Warm golden light spills across a rough stone floor inside a Kathmandu workshop, illuminating flour dust suspended in the air. A baker stands near the market doorway, wearing a dark apron stained with years of dough and soot. The worker's sleeves are rolled up, revealing forearms dusted with white powder. Deep shadows stretch along the textured mud walls, creating strong geometric lines that guide the gaze toward the bright opening. Wooden beams overhead cast long, dark patterns across the workspace. The light catches the grit on the baker's face and the uneven surface of the stone floor. One pile of unshaped dough rests on a wooden board in the foreground, its surface smooth against the rough surroundings.
