Mount

A small Cape Cod cottage with a lantern on its roof, set on the southern tip of Point Loma. The light first lit on a November evening in 1855, high on the bluff above the Pacific. That elevation turned out to be too high. Fog and low cloud rolled across the promontory most nights, and by 1891 the keeper had moved down the bluff to a new tower closer to the water. The old house stayed. It is a museum now, kept the way it was when a family lived in it and trimmed the wick. Once a year, on the anniversary of the first lighting, the tower opens.

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