Stonemason Carving Gargoyle Lahore Dawn

by Penny Trujillo

Cool blue morning light touches the wire mesh of a scaffold rising against a cathedral under construction in Lahore. A stonemason stands on the narrow wooden planks, leaning forward to chip away at a rough stone block shaped like a gargoyle. Dust motes hang suspended in the still air where the first rays of sun hit the formwork. The worker wears a simple white turban and a dust-stained shirt, his hands gripping a heavy chisel and hammer. Low-hanging grey clouds obscure the sky, casting a soft, diffused glow over the concrete pillars and unfinished arches. Converging lines of the scaffolding poles draw toward the distant, hazy horizon where the city wakes slowly. The texture of the wet stone contrasts with the dry, orange-brown earth visible below the construction deck.
