Over The Door
As you can tell from the recent posts, I’ve been spending a lot of time around the West 70’s recently. Two quick doorways:
I like the little relief over this doorway, in which two angels (or babies?) are holding a cloth that has the building number written on it.
I think I like it because the angels look not so much like they’re peacefully holding the cloth, but more like they’re engaged in some sort of biblical tug-of-war. Also, the craftsmanship is a bit shoddy, so their faces are amusing (the one on the right looks unhappy…maybe because he’s losing?).
Also, I dig this creepy entrance…
…complete with an appropriately creepy number font.
