Really beautiful old door.
But around there are many wires … Dangerous?

Truly a majestic entrance. The dark green goes well with the rest too.

That ornate door suggests a structure of some strength and importance or wealth. It also looks like it could be restored to its former glory!

Adoro esse estilo, a porta é simplismente maravilhosa e amo a cor verde. Uma pena estar abandonada!

Such a shame to see the neglect and graffiti. Wonderful craftsmanship went into that structure.

The passage of time, as they say. It's a beautiful door, with a good colour... the building just needs some attention, but it feels like it's worthwhile.
