Description
Beautiful bougainvillea draped over this stucco fence and arched gate, creating a stunning entrance to a Portuguese garden. The painted strong gold trim color signifies the owner of this property is of higher station in life, whereas, if it were the traditional bright cobalt blue, it would denote a commoner. Both trim colors' purpose is to block bad spirits from entering. New understanding ... new eyes, when you visit Portugal in this painting.
