About this piece

Two white Adirondack chairs and a small table stand on a pale stone terrace overlooking calm turquoise water. Bright sunlight casts patterned shadows across the paving, while green foliage frames the left edge and a distant sailboat punctuates the open horizon. The broad expanse of sky and water gives this unoccupied setting a quiet spaciousness.

The story

July light rests on the white chair backs and passes through the green leaves beside them. Beyond the terrace, fine ripples loosen the reflections of clouds. A small sailboat sits far to the right, its mast a slender mark against the blue. The chairs remain empty, holding a place for two people and an afternoon without urgency.
