The Great Brass Door

by shoornSep 14, 2017
I used 6 different pps on this layout - HOTP (2), Teresa Collins(2), Recollections, American Crafts (some of the black pp - B side), also gold paper and black cs for photos. Gold stickers, brads, MME enamel arrow.

Journaling - Edward William Bok died within sight of his beloved Singing Tower on January 9, 1930, and is buried at the base of the Tower in front of the Great Brass Door.

Bok enlisted Samuel Yellin, America’s premier metalworker, to create several elements to adorn the Carillon Tower. Yellin designed the brass door and the wrought iron gates on the north side of the Tower. The iron gates leading to the Tower were hand-wrought and feature birds with various expressions and wings for flight. The Great Door is a masterpiece and depicts the Biblical story of creation, the Book of Genesis, starting with the creation of light and ending with Adam and Eve being banished from the Garden of Eden.
