THE DOOR – LA PORTA DEL PARADISO - Photo of the week #37
The door for excellence, "The Door to Heaven".
It is located in Italy, in one of the most famous squares, in one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Florence.
Located in Piazza Santa Maria Novella, in front of the Duomo, it is the east door of the Baptistery of Florence.
Sculpted by the sculptor Lorenzo Ghiberti in the 15th century and made of bronze, it was subsequently gilded.
Michelangelo Buonarroti, defined the door so beautiful, that it could have been the door of paradise, and from there "The Door of Paradise".
66 meters high, 10 tiles characterize the external side, while 28 are the tiles on the internal side.

Nice text, but only one photo. I would like to see other angles, close-ups. It seems we already talked about this topic :-)
Certainly :) this post was for the contest, Photo of the Week, and I only included a meaningful image.
