Mount

The village climbs a limestone cliff above the Alzou canyon, in the Quercy. Seven sanctuaries stacked onto a single ledge cut from the rock: the Basilique Saint-Sauveur, the Chapelle Notre-Dame, the Crypt of Saint Amadour. The Grand Escalier of 216 steps connects the houses below to the chapels above. Inside the chapel, a small walnut Black Virgin has held her place since the twelfth century, blackened by smoke and time. The classic view is from L'Hospitalet across the canyon, where the whole town reads as one carved thing. Best a little before the noon coaches arrive.

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