Vintage Charm and Intricate Details of Ancient Door and Lock | Limited Edition of 10
In my exploration of historical sites, I discovered a captivating black and white image of an ancient door and lock. This aged entrance, adorned with its intricate and timeworn lock, evokes a sense of mystery and curiosity, prompting one to ponder the stories and secrets hidden behind it.
The door, crafted from aged wood and accented with ornate metalwork, stands as a testament to the skilled craftsmanship of a bygone era. The complex lock, rusted from years of exposure, adds an element of intrigue to the image, inviting the viewer to imagine the tales and treasures it once guarded. Shadows dance across the scene, highlighting the door's textures and accentuating the delicate interplay between light and darkness.
As I captured this moment through my camera lens, I endeavored to preserve the beauty and enigma of the ancient door and lock. The absence of people within the photograph allows viewers to immerse themselves in the scene and engage with their own thoughts and emotions, contemplating the history that lies beyond the threshold.

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.
