Blue Monday/Monday Doorways

I recently featured another beautiful
old blue door. Just wanted to say that
if I can't have that one in Venice,
I'll very happily take this one in Paris!

Thursday Challenge — "door"

Someday I'm going to have a door
this color—and if I'm lucky, it'll be
in Venice like this one is.

Come In!

I'm usually a pretty symmetrical kind of girl, but I love this
doorway—another thing I found at the Met last week.

Monday Doorways

Last week I promised a more famous church
with a colorful side door—how about Notre Dame?

Monday Doorways

Sometimes the side door of a church (another, more famous,
example to come) is more interesting—or at least more
colorful—than the main entrance.  This pretty pink door belongs to 
one of the many, many (almost 700!) churches in Brooklyn.

Monday Doorways

There's a pretty nice view from the doorway of
the church of Santa Maria della Salute, built in
Venice in the mid-17th century as an offering for the
city's deliverance from an outbreak of the plague.
Constructed atop a platform of 100,000 wooden piles
driven vertically into the sea bed, it took about
50 years to build, and was completed in 1681.
