Colourful Monday


Ahh...the one good thing about Monday...it's colour day!! Yay! And today's colour is RED (well, it is more of an earthy red than a blood red!)!! We haven't seen this colour since Valentine's Day (the day I started this blog!). Well, this door is not as extravagant as that door was, but this one is in an entirely different ballpark than that one, too.

This door has a bit of both an Art Nouveau and an Art Deco feel to it... this doesn't mean that it is from either of these periods (it could have been made more recently), but as those styles have long been popular, they are used and reused and we fall for them every time (or at least I do!). No matter what, the decoration on this door made me think of Spring and since we have officially entered into Spring, I offer you this Spring-ish door!! Enjoy, and have a nice, sunny day.

P.S. Unfortunately, the handle on this door was not worth photographing up close.

I knew that Prague has really great looking doors but after looking at your photos I have to admit that I didn't fully appreciate them when I was there.

I love red and this is one very pretty red door. I love the carvings on it. I had a link to Door Hunter on my post yesterday.
WE hope you had a good weekend and were able to find lots of new doors.

I love red doors, they are majestic and regal.
