Closeup photo of the central panels of a set of panelled wooden double doors. They are painted a dark mossy green, but the paint is largely flaking and fading, revealing flashes of dark blue paint and rough blond wood underneath, and they look like no one has opened them, let alone cared for them, for decades or centuries. There are matching black iron door knockers on both halves of the door, in the shape of stern faces, with the knocker-handle-bits hanging down and casting u-shaped shadows. There is a feeling of dereliction and total neglect, and I think some people might find it a bit spooky-looking and Gothic horror-y, but I think it looks intriguing and mysterious and like an invitation to heart-pounding spectacular adventure, and I would very much like to go inside.
