The door's elaborate decoration and sections are meticulously captured by Farsari Adolfo & Co. , allowing viewers to appreciate every detail with awe-inspiring clarity. The composition draws attention to the grandeur of Yashamon Door within its temple setting. The stairs leading up to it create a sense of anticipation as one imagines entering this sacred space.
