Pointe du Raz
$22.00
The far western tip of Brittany. Granite cliffs above the Raz de Sein, where the tidal current runs against the wind and the Phare de la Vieille blinks from its rock offshore. The heather and gorse end at the cliff and then there is sea, the same sea all the way to Newfoundland. A small bronze statue, Notre-Dame des Naufragés, watches over the water for the sailors who never came back. People walk out from the visitor car park along paths that were re-laid after the old ones wore through. Even in summer the wind carries something cold off the Atlantic.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
