Beauty in the decay

Many buildings in Delhi are crumbling or decaying--but that grittiness can lend itself to a certain kind of loveliness. For your viewing pleasure, here are two doorways I came across recently that I thought were quite elegant in their own ways.

(Especially check out the carved peacock above the doorway below--isn't it grand?)


I wonder what "418" refers to. The building  number or . . . ?
