Rope Hanging Into Black Cistern Inside Roofless Nave

by Jeanne Hudson

Hard coastal glare cuts through low-hanging clouds, illuminating the exposed timber frame of a roofless nave in early winter. A thick synthetic rope descends from the broken archway into the deep, black void of a stone cistern below. The rough-hewn masonry shows patches of moss and lichen against the gray slate. Sunlight strikes the wet stone rim, creating sharp highlights that contrast with the shadowed interior. The rope hangs taut, its fibers catching the light in a diagonal line that pulls attention downward. One frayed end rests against the dark water surface.
