This very unique and very rare door is a perfect example of a little-known period called 'Rybism'* which was between 1210 and 1290. When I saw this door, I immediately wanted to know more so I did a little bit of research and found that it was recently discovered buried behind a wall of a palace and that it's beauty has remained intact thanks to the plaster work that covered it. *Rybism: translated 'fishism'

Very interesting period for the door's history. I made a study of 1257 pages on them , if you want for documentation! Ü
Oh my that is one very old and well preserved door. Designing special doors has been going on for some time.
