The biggest palace in Florence, and the one a banker built to rival the Medici, who then bought it out from under his family. It sits on the quiet side of the Arno, the Oltrarno, with the whole green hill of the Boboli Gardens climbing behind it. The front is rough golden stone, course on course, the kind that holds the afternoon and gives it back slowly toward evening. People cross the river for the Raphael rooms and the gardens; the locals walk up the hill at the back, where the city falls away.

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