Story: An entryway should set the tone of what is inside. As I walked up to this church, the most striking thing besides knowing it part of antiquity were the doors. The doors had protruding figures cast into them. This door has a woman bowing down on the bottom right and what appears to be an angel on the top left. This is one of the finest displays of symbolism I have ever had the pleausre if baring witness.
