Mount

A pope was born here when it was still a village called Corsignano. He came back as Pius II, hired an architect, and in three years turned it into the town he thought a town should be: one square, one church, one palace, the valley left to do the rest. The pecorino is still aged in cellars cut into the same stone. Late in the day the travertine goes the colour of the cheese, and the Val d'Orcia behind it softens into the view every other Tuscan postcard is trying to be.

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