France Door Collection

Name: France Door Knob #2

Date: Spring 2013

Country: France

Some pieces stop you in your tracks. France Door Knob #2 is one of the most exquisite details I encountered in Bordeaux—an ornate brass doorknob featuring a cherub’s face carved into its surface. Time has worn its shine into a soft patina, giving it even greater depth and character.

The black door it adorns carries its own story, with layers of cracked and weathered paint revealing centuries of age. Together, door and knob form a portrait of artistry, devotion, and endurance.

Of all the architectural details I captured, this one remains among my favorites. It embodies the quiet grandeur of Bordeaux, where beauty resides not only in sweeping facades, but in the intimate, enduring details that greet every hand at the threshold.

Order: France Door Knob #2 is available as a signed, limited-edition fine art print in multiple sizes. Each piece is hand-inspected, numbered, and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. To obtain your fine art print, visit the Order Page.
