Mount

A wide green park above the Spanish Steps, where Romans go to slow down. The umbrella pines run in long colonnades; the gravel paths trace the shape of a seventeenth-century cardinal's pleasure garden. Cardinal Scipione Borghese laid it out in 1605 as a vigna outside the walls; English landscape designers reshaped it two centuries later, and the city took it in 1903. The Pincio terrace is where the light goes at the end of the day, looking west over Piazza del Popolo, across the river, to the dome of St. Peter's. Locals come here for the gold hour. Tourists find out by accident.

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