I like these kind of decorations at the entrances or facades and usually I will pause and look at them. This one is quite old and honestly I am not sure when was it dated (but certainly old). I always feel it might have a certain story behind. And between these curves, its captured expression on their faces or amongst the posture – the effort.

Yes, I have to agree with you. I don’t always like them, but I always find them fascinating!
Beautiful details! They will look even better after the renovation of the building. Nice photo!
I love the detail in your photo!
The year is clearly visible on the photo: 1896! :-)
