Description
Doors of the World Series by Lexa Harpell.
A heavily bolted and locked timber church door Colchester England.
Pondering the many hands that touched this handle to open the door.
The human fascination with doors. Who or what do they keep contained inside or outside. The intrigue of the unknown of what lies behind, at times with a lock or bolt. Hinged securely or flimsily. They can also be warm and welcoming, inviting you to enter.
Pondering the hands that touched or persons who entered.
The patterns, textures, shapes and age all have their own appeal to the senses. From elegance, rustic, gothic, weathered, peeling, mysterious, intrigue, architecture.....
The fascination of doors - locked or bolted, they make you ponder. They intrigue us of what lies beyond. They create a mystery of sorts. Or they can be open and are warm and welcoming.
