The painting In front of doors symbolically expresses the need to open up to life with everything it brings us. To open yourself up to life's challenges, new opportunities, new people, new possibilities, new paths, new people... (life is symbolized by a tree and life's challenges by different leaves on it).
But also to face the obstacles or difficulties that life sometimes surprises us with.
Some of us are always ready for them, see them as an inevitable, natural part of real being and expect them confidently with stoic calm and are always ready to step out to meet them (like the man in the brown suit and shoes), others expect them with hope, that something better will happen, but at the same time three also with internal fears that it will not be the other way around (a woman in whose not quite sincere smile you can feel a little strength and convulsion).
The symbolism of the young man in the yellow T-shirt has several possibilities. On the one hand, thinking about life and what life can bring to him, but also the humility and modesty with which he accepts what life has given him. However, it can also express a little sadness or nostalgia. The green color on the face of the handsome man symbolizes his gradual maturation, which, due to the lack of life experience, justifies his lower self-confidence. However, the yellow color of his T-shirt expresses the energy of the sun, the vitality that will give him the strength to handle life's tasks confidently (even if he doesn't realize it yet due to his young age).
This is my version of the story, but for you this painting may tell a completely different story...
