Mount

The oldest stretch runs south from Rome's old gate, paved in the same dark basalt the Republic laid down. Umbrella pines lean in over the stones; tombs and broken statues line the verges where Roman families once buried their dead in sight of the road. Crassus crucified six thousand of Spartacus's followers along here in 71 BC. Most of the noise of the city falls away by the second mile. People come to walk it on Sundays, when the road is closed to cars, and nobody hurries.

Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
