Polishing Boots in Prague

by Graham Turner

Low-angle street view shows a shoe shiner’s wooden booth on the cobblestones of Old Town Square, lit by the sharp, cool light of early morning. A worker in a blue apron kneels, vigorously brushing a customer’s polished leather oxford with a horsehair brush, while the customer’s other foot rests on the brass-rimmed footrest. Behind them, the facade of a baroque building displays peeling ochre paint and wrought-iron balconies, against the dark, wet stones of the pavement. Sunlight glints off the metal polish tins arranged on the small tray, and a discarded newspaper lies near the curb, its headlines blurred by the dampness.
