Mount

The eastern of the three chalk arches at Étretat, smaller than its siblings to the west, but the one a walker meets first when coming down the cliffs from Fécamp. Above it stands the small chapel of Notre-Dame de la Garde, rebuilt after the war, white against the grey-green chalk. Monet painted this view many times, looking west across the bay toward the Porte d'Aval and the Aiguille standing in the water. The opening frames a small piece of the English Channel, the colour depending on the tide and the cloud. The climb up from the beach is steep. The wind at the top is always there.

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