Howth Head
$22.00
A heather-covered headland at the north arm of Dublin Bay, where the DART line from the city ends and the cliff path begins. The Baily Lighthouse sits at the southeastern tip, white against weathered rock. Below stretches the Irish Sea, the same water Joyce kept circling back to in Ulysses, that has held Ireland's Eye and its early-medieval monastery ruins just offshore. In summer the gorse turns the slopes yellow. In any season the gulls are loud.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
