Description
"Bar Across the Door"
This striking black and white photograph by Bob Orsillo captures the essence of a forgotten, perhaps even haunted, place. The image focuses on a grand, imposing doorway set within a weathered brick wall. The doorway, with its classical pediment and decorative pilasters, hints at a bygone era of grandeur and elegance.
The heavy wooden doors, now barred and locked, add to the sense of mystery and intrigue. The dark, weathered wood and the imposing iron bar suggest that the doorway has been sealed off for a long time. The surrounding brick wall, with its rough texture and uneven surface, further emphasizes the building's age and neglect.
The black and white photography style enhances the image's dramatic effect, creating a sense of timelessness and decay. The stark contrast between the light and dark areas of the image draws the viewer's eye to the doorway, inviting speculation about what lies beyond.
Overall, "Bar Across the Door" is a powerful and evocative image that sparks the imagination and invites the viewer to ponder the history and secrets hidden within the building's walls.

Stone wall in the side of hill, Greek Revival architecture frame the entrance of a seasoned and weather worn double door. Two small windows high blocking sunlight from entering. Bar and chain across the door, locking them in or locking us out.
