Belgrade Daily Photo, Serbia: An old weathered door

Thursday, January 22, 2009

I took this a while ago and can't remember where it was. I think that face on the door looks like William Shakespeare, or is it just me?

Anonymous 1:08 AM: TKV has an eclectic taste when it comes to stencils, so I think that could be Frida Kahlo... or Tobić Tobić... not sure, but one or the other definitely. Or maybe it is Shakespeare after all...
Ken Mac 2:15 AM: excellent capture of detail, light and mood. I love this history
Walker 2:59 AM: Wonder if the guy who built those doors thought they would still be swinging. ha ha
Jane Hards Photography 3:07 AM: Only in mainland Europe cold you find such beautiful decay.
Maki 4:48 AM: Can you just imagine it in it's glory days??
Anonymous 5:07 AM: I love the blue with the old wood. Beautiful.
Pat 7:11 AM: I agree with Babooshka; and these doors and facade are beautiful. Though Frida Kahlo did have a sort of dark mustache/facial hair, I think this still looks like William!
Hilda 9:39 AM: You're right, it does look like Shakespeare :)

I love old wood and I think the door is wonderful! Of course, I want to strip the rest of the paint from it. And that carved stone arch — gorgeous!

Anonymous 1:30 PM: Reminds me of a depiction of The Canterville Ghost which is a short story by Oscar Wilde.
But that is just me - and CG was Elizabethan too.
Gemma Wiseman 12:22 PM: Instantly I think of Dickens' Scrooge and the Ghost of Christmas Past! Overall, intriguing combination of stone and woodwork textures!
