The largest baptistery in Italy, on the wide green field they call the Square of Miracles. Round, white, two centuries in the making: begun in Romanesque arches in 1152 and finished in Gothic pinnacles in 1363. Inside, every half hour, the custodian sings a single note that the dome holds for almost ten seconds, turning one voice into a chord. People stop talking when it happens. The leaning tower gets the photographs; the baptistery gets the silence afterward.

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