Mount

Genoa runs straight down a slope into the Ligurian Sea. The harbour is the floor of the city; narrow streets, the caruggi, climb the hill behind it, and the Lanterna has stood at the western edge of the port since 1543. The current tower replaced a medieval one first lit in 1128. A working port and a museum at once. Renzo Piano, born here, gave the old basin its modern face for the quincentenary in 1992. There are mornings the light off the water is so bright the city above the harbour reads almost white.

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