Leadville sits at 10,151 feet, the highest incorporated city in the United States. Harrison Avenue runs through the historic district, about seventy blocks of Victorian brick and storefront left over from the silver boom of 1880, when this was Colorado's second-largest city. Walk west off the avenue and the Sawatch Range comes into view: Mount Elbert and Mount Massive, the two highest summits in the Rocky Mountains, both above 14,400 feet. The whole downtown is a National Historic Landmark District. The Tabor Opera House on the avenue still hosts concerts. The light up here is thinner than at any other city in the country, and it shows in the colour of the brick.

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