Ornate old door with no glass | Limited Edition of 10
While wandering the streets of Uruguay, I came across a fascinating sight: an ornate old door with no glass, a haunting remnant of a time gone by. The black and white tones of this photograph emphasize the stark beauty and mystery of the abandoned structure, inviting the viewer to ponder its untold stories.
Uruguay, a small South American country known for its beautiful coastline and rich cultural heritage, is home to countless architectural gems. This particular door, with its intricate design and timeworn appearance, bears the marks of history and the passage of time. The absence of glass in the door's frame adds an eerie, enigmatic quality to the scene, evoking a sense of curiosity and intrigue.
The monochromatic palette of the photograph serves to heighten the contrast between the ornate door and its weathered surroundings, drawing the viewer's attention to the fine details and textures. The composition, with its focus on the door as the central subject, encourages the viewer to imagine the stories and secrets hidden within the abandoned building. The interplay of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the image, enhancing its evocative atmosphere.

Limited Edition of 10
This photograph is released as a signed and numbered limited edition of only 10 prints in total across all available sizes combined—not 10 prints in each size.
Every size is drawn from the same edition. Whether the photograph is purchased as a small print or at the largest available size, it uses one of the 10 edition numbers.
I personally sign and number each print on the reverse, and every print is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity recording its title, dimensions, medium, edition number, and date of issue.
Once all 10 prints have been sold, the edition will be permanently closed. No additional numbered editions of the photograph will be produced in another size or format.
Premium Archival Fine Art Prints
I personally produce every photograph using archival pigment inks on premium archival paper with a subtle luster finish.
The paper provides rich tonal depth, excellent fine-detail reproduction, and a refined surface that reduces distracting glare under normal indoor lighting. It is especially well suited to both color and black-and-white photography.
Each photograph is sold as an unframed fine art print, allowing it to be framed according to the collector’s space and personal style.
Before a print leaves my studio, I carefully inspect it for color, tonal accuracy, surface quality, and overall presentation. Nothing is outsourced, and every finished print passes through my hands.
Worldwide Delivery Included
Every print is personally produced, inspected, signed, numbered, and carefully packaged by me at my studio in Haliburton, Ontario, Canada.
Worldwide delivery is included in the listed price, so there is no additional shipping charge added during checkout. I select an appropriate tracked delivery service based on the destination, print size, and current shipping requirements.
Delivery times vary by destination and may be affected by customs processing or circumstances beyond my control.
Because I also travel extensively to create new photographic work, studio dispatch may occasionally be delayed while I am away. When that happens, the print will be produced and shipped as soon as I return to the studio.
