Pretty interesting and appears to be have done in 1969, before that door was worth a lot more than that canvas!! Any thoughts? Is this your style?

It is an interesting juxtaposition of nature at eternal conflict with the stark harshness of  Capitalism.
This is an early piece from the famed late 20th century  impressionist R.E. Ballard, possibly  crafted during his "Have a coke and a 'shroom" period.

I saw that earlier today, Send them an email and see if they would swap the coin door for something with some woodgrain.  Tell them your updating it to a more modern theme.

OK, I had to resort to Wikipedia, the Magic eight ball and two 9Th grade English Teachers to get the true definition of this ...this.. Juxtaposition Kilroy spoke of.

 “Juxtaposition is the placement of two things (usually abstract concepts, though it can refer to physical objects) near each other.” 

Well there you have it...  Oo oops
