#6170. Historical Door Facade from 1853 with Rich Polychrome Decoration

The image showcases an expressive historical door portal of a building dated 1853, as evidenced by the inscription on the decorative panel above the door. The portal is executed in an eclectic style with elements of Neo-Renaissance and Baroque.

The double door is painted in a rich green color, complemented by red elements and gilded framing. The door leaves are adorned with arched panels featuring elegant metal latticework of intricate pattern and central medallions. Geometric inserts of red and green in the lower part of the door create a rhythmic composition and emphasize the architectural significance of the entrance.

Of particular note is the decorative pediment above the door featuring the inscription "Jacobikuna Margaretha 1853" on a red medallion, framed by putti figures and floral ornaments in lush green tones. Above it is a decorative panel with gold ornamentation on a dark blue background.

The door portal is organically integrated into the red brick facade, laid in a decorative geometric pattern, creating an interesting contrast with the richly adorned door. Such a combination of materials and colors is typical of Northern German or Northern European architecture of the 19th century.
