Verdigris on Copper Penny in Seoul Dawn

by Brooke Alvarez

Pale dawn light slips across a rain-beaded metal floor in Hongdae, Seoul, illuminating a copper penny resting at eye level. The coin surface displays intricate patterns of green verdigris oxidation, against the remaining reddish-brown metal. Water droplets rest on the surrounding floor, catching the soft morning glow and creating jewel-like reflections. The texture of the corroded metal appears rough and crystalline under the magnified view, while the wet floor amplifies the cool tones of the early summer light. A sharp edge of green patina sits directly against a smooth, dry patch of copper, highlighting the slow chemical change. at the edge is a single water bead stretching a thin bridge of light across the oxidized green.
