Vietnamese Lacquered Pillars in Istanbul Terminal

by Marcus Grant

Vibrant red lacquered pillars stand in sharp relief against the high vaulted ceiling of a restored train terminal. The deep, glossy surfaces reflect the dramatic clouds visible through the glass roof, creating a mirrored composition where the sky appears to float below the floor. Early autumn sunlight falls through the structure, casting bold shadows that emphasize the intricate joinery of the wooden beams. The polished floor mirrors the azure sky and white cloud formations, doubling the visual impact of the tropical bright light. Every curve of the pillar catches the glare, while the rough stone of the terminal walls provides a textural counterpoint to the smooth, varnished wood. One beam of light strikes the base of a pillar, illuminating the dust particles dancing in the air.
