Today is the first day of the month.
The Theme Day has arrived. Today: Doorways.
I have chosen this door. This gate is located at the Museum of Fine Arts of Murcia (Museo de Bellas Artes de Murcia). It is a door that was part of the facade of the Palace Silk Contrast (17th century). Now is the doorway to one of the temporary halls of the museum and the pavilion is also documentation room and library.
