Description #1 by Etsy - illuminatedluna:

This is a typical door in beautiful colonial Antigua, Guatemala. Antigua was at one time Guatemala's capital,until a devestating earthquake in 1773 moved the capital to Guatemala City. Antigua is today a UNESCO world heritage site full of beauty and culture and surrounded by volcanos. I've added "adoption" as a tag, because I think doorway art can symbolize a new beginning, and I know many who have adopted from this beautiful country.
