About this design
A laurel wreath, a big iron key and an arched stone door.
The story behind it
The Romans honored this god of gates, doors and beginnings first in their prayers, and the month of January is named for him. A small temple in the Roman Forum had double doors that stood open in wartime and were closed in times of peace, and he was shown looking both ways, as a doorway does, holding a key for the doors and a staff.
Proposed colors: Natural
Mockups show the print at true scale on a size M tee. Colors are proposed, not final.
