Mount

Cremona sits low on the left bank of the Po, the kind of city that does not announce itself. The Torrazzo, a brick bell tower over a hundred metres tall, keeps watch above the cathedral square. A few streets away, luthiers shape spruce and maple in workshops, some of which trace back to the 1500s. Antonio Stradivari worked here. So did Guarneri. The traditional craft was inscribed by UNESCO in 2012. Visitors climb the Torrazzo's 502 steps, stop into the Museo del Violino, and stay for a plate of mostarda. The bells still mark the hours.

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