The light at the tip of the Marin Headlands, marking the north side of the Golden Gate. The original lighthouse stood higher on the headland from 1855 but was often above the fog it was meant to mark, so the Lighthouse Board moved it to the present location in 1877, 124 feet above the water at the very point. The approach runs through a hand-cut tunnel, bored in 1877 by Chinese labourers, and crosses a short suspension bridge to the lantern room. The 1855 second-order Fresnel lens is still in service, one of the few original Fresnel lenses still lighting an active United States aid to navigation. Open Saturday through Monday.

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