A pink Belle Époque villa on the narrow spine of Cap Ferrat, where the gardens fall away to water on both sides. Baroness Béatrice Ephrussi de Rothschild built it between 1905 and 1912 and laid the central French garden out as a ship's deck, with a long pool running from bow to stern. Nine gardens in all surround the villa, each a different country: Spanish, Florentine, Japanese, Provençal. The musical fountains rise and fall on a twenty-minute cycle. The estate was bequeathed to the Institut de France when the Baroness died in 1934. The Mediterranean does what it does on either side.

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