Death's Door?


OK, so this is a puzzle.  It is a door on a street just off Abbot Kinney.  I have about a billion questions about this photograph that I just can't answer.  I don't even know if the door opens - I suspect that it does not.  And the artwork is the main attraction.  It clearly is the grim reaper, but what is he doing - helping a child in a crosswalk?  What would that mean?  One more piece of wonderful art in Venice! All guesses as to what this means are welcome.

  2. It has the styling of Banksy or an imitator - that door could be worth tens of thousands! -Dean
