{"product_id":"old-tuscan-door-with-cross","title":"Tuscan Wooden Door with Cross Detail Black and White Photography Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis black and white photography print studies a narrow wooden door with a small cross-shaped detail in Tuscany. A barred window and rough stonework bring Italian doorway wall art a close balance of surfaces and proportions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA small cross-shaped detail on this wooden door gives the scene its point of focus, but the surrounding stonework is just as important to me. The narrow entrance sits to one side of a barred window, making an uneven arrangement that feels both simple and absorbing. I photographed this Tuscan facade as a close study of surfaces and proportions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBroad stone blocks frame the door, setting a clean rectangle within the rougher wall. Across the dark wood, horizontal divisions contrast with the long upright sides of the doorway. The small metal detail is easy to miss at first; once noticed, it draws the eye back into the centre of the entrance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe window adds a different rhythm. Its square grid holds a dark recess above the pale, irregular masonry, while changing block sizes and patches of mortar keep the wall from becoming repetitive. Along the bottom of the photograph, darker marks on the pavement provide another loose pattern. I like how many textures can coexist within such an ordinary view.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack and white lets those textures take precedence over colour. It also brings the door and window together through their darker tones, with the brighter stone linking the whole facade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade in Tuscany in 2010, this photograph offers a restrained piece of Italian architectural wall art. It suits someone who enjoys old doorways, worked stone and small details discovered on foot, with enough contrast to hold its own in a study, hallway or quiet living space.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e© Dan Kosmayer, 2010\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dan Kosmayer Photography","offers":[{"title":"10 × 10 inches (25.4 × 25.4 cm)","offer_id":40606591352911,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 × 12 inches (30.5 × 30.5 cm)","offer_id":40483331768399,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14 × 14 inches (35.6 × 35.6 cm)","offer_id":40606558847055,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 × 16 inches (40.6 × 40.6 cm)","offer_id":40483331801167,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18 × 18 inches (45.7 × 45.7 cm)","offer_id":67602028658767,"sku":null,"price":64.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 × 20 inches (50.8 × 50.8 cm)","offer_id":40483331833935,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"28 × 28 inches (71.1 × 71.1 cm)","offer_id":41185210204239,"sku":"","price":105.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/9685\/2047\/files\/Tuscan-Wooden-Door-With-Cross-Detail-Black-And-White-Photography-1.jpg?v=1792354163","url":"https:\/\/dinkosmayer.com\/products\/old-tuscan-door-with-cross","provider":"Dan Kosmayer Fine Art Photography","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
