The majestic front door of the “Black Eagle”.
A side door into the church of “Santa Maria del Soccorso”.A building on the “Scali Saffi” seen from the “Scagli degli Olandesi”, just across the canal. The line of stones below is the parapet of the “Fosso Reale” (Royal Canal).

I like two of the three doorways here.
ReplyDeleteThe bottom one is interesting. It looks truncated.

I like them all, but the first one is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteThree doors, each with its own unique story, together making a harmonious little post.
ReplyDeleteSorry to see the vandalism on the church.
ReplyDeleteI was going to say, it's Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteJust the name, l'aquila nera, is terribly evocative.
Love that Black Eagle door. What is the Black Eagle?
ReplyDeleteThey all have such character! Gorgeous doors ;D
ReplyDeleteDid you try to open any of these?
ReplyDeleteYou found some major doors there.
The historic photo in your linked post--so tragic.
I would be proud to walk thru any of them.

Wonderful doorways. I like them all. MB
ReplyDeleteI love those arch-y doorways. I also have a doorway up today. But we're more into the columns over here.
ReplyDeleteI like these photos very much, as I like all your blog. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteDoors... and windows... and roofs (hehe)... are like benches... Could do an endless series of them. These three are superb, but shame on whoever defaced the church wall!
