One of the interesting things to see in Dublin is its sample of old Victorian doors.
There are many, original of the '800 as well as modern by in-style.
Here there is a sample from my trip to Dublin last year:

This is a truly interesting series. I would never associate such bright, rich colors with the Victorian era, or is the application of color a more modern trend?

Thanks for posting these.

I was curious enough and did some search...
... from the Irish Georgian Society:

Pre-1900 doors were nearly always painted and the colours used tended to be dark, with dark browns and greens, blacks being most common. However from the last quarter of the 20th century Dublin’s historic doors began to be painted many different colours, with bright yellows and reds and blues and purples featuring. While the latter brighter colour selections are historically inaccurate, it is reversible, and indeed has now become a celebrated characteristic of the Dublin streetscape, as such, within reason, owners need not be too puritanical in their colour selection.

No more mystery about it!
