Aaah, I'm stressed today! I don't have time for elaborate research, and I think I've maxed out my Pixelfed character limit for the day anyway. 😂

So without further ado, here's a tiny hobbit-esque door on the side of #Magdeburg Cathedral for #Doorsday

Joining @meoralis this week for #CemeterySunday.

Here's the #gravestone of Susanna Orne who died in 1777. From Old Burial Hill in #Marblehead, #Massachusetts.

I'm head over heels in love with the #macabre and dramatic #DeathsHead and #MementoMori motifs of #NewEngland cemeteries.

Zum #Doorsday noch ein paar Löwen an der #Liebfrauenkirche in #Bremen. Nach dem Dom ist sie die zweitälteste Kirche der Stadt. Sie hat wunderschöne Buntglasfenster, aber wir sind nicht reingegangen. 😭

For #Doorsday, here are a couple of lions adorning the entrance of Kirche Unser Lieben Frauen (Church of Our Lady) in Bremen. It's the second oldest #church in the city after the cathedral. It boasts stunning stained-glass windows, but we didn't go inside. 😭

At our March meeting (1st March, IN PERSON), Dr Kathryn Piquette and Mick Oakey will give a talk on "New Research on the Making of the Narmer Palette" (1/4)

Some #art and sophistication for today's #TongueOutTuesday and #Toothday, if you will. 🧐 These #sculptures adorn the #Zwinger Palace in #Dresden. There are loads of #statues and sculptures here, each uniquely expressive, so you'll be seeing more of them at some point. 😅
Of course, most have been restored, but around 150 of the 500 sculptures on the façades and roofs of the palatial complex are originals, making them 300 years old (though not these gentlemen).

So, aftermarket wiring is fun. . . Here are some things I will probably be hyperfocused on this year. Please take this rare opportunity to infodump me if anything on this list is your groove.
