1 May: A Thursday Door

an old door from a building in Cannes.

With weathered panels and a faded, dignified face, this old wooden door stands like a guardian of forgotten stories, its peeling paint and scarred surface whispering memories of countless comings and goings. The ornate carvings and the rusty knocker sit like a brooch on a well-worn coat. Despite its age, the door holds its ground with quiet resilience, a sentinel who has seen centuries pass and still greets each day with a patient, enduring presence.

Bushboy (Brian Dodd) shares photos of doors, but not just any doors. Spectacular doors from his journeys. Dan’s Thursday Doors opened the door on this. I love doors of all sorts. I’ve trawled through my photos and found a few to share.

  4. This really is a special door with all that patina and craftmanship. And I love how everyone in the Thursday Group brings different take on doors – with so much expression and many times a lot more than just doors, which is one of my favorite parts – 🙂

  5. The old doors are decorative, contributing to aesthetics. Modern doors are blank.
