Strasbourg Cathedral Notre-Dame
$22.00
Pink Vosges sandstone, quarried from the hills west of the city, gives Strasbourg's cathedral its colour: rose at noon, near-red as the day fades. The west façade carries a great wheel of stained glass above three carved portals, and a single spire rises 142 metres above the old city. Its twin was never built, and the asymmetry has had nine centuries to settle in. Inside, an astronomical clock runs its procession of figures at 12:30 each day. The cathedral has stood over the old city for almost a thousand years.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
