#1196. Eclectic Façade with Baroque Stucco: Twin Window with Decorative Cartouche

The image captures an elegant fragment of a historical building façade executed in an eclectic style. The central element of the composition features two elongated, rectangular windows with dark frames, surrounded by exquisite architectural decoration. The windows have a three-part division, characteristic of classical urban architecture from the late 19th to early 20th century.

Of particular note is the rich stucco ornamentation above the windows in the form of a decorative cartouche with volutes, floral motifs, and a central element resembling a bunch of grapes. This baroque element contrasts with the overall restraint of the façade. The window openings are decorated on the sides and bottom with small, elegant consoles featuring botanical ornamentation.

The façade is painted in a light gray color, creating a neutral background for the darker window frames and white decorative elements, which emphasizes the dimensionality and relief of the stucco work. Light curtains are visible behind the glass, and a small American flag can be seen in the right window—a detail indicating the contemporary use of this historical building.

The combination of classical architectural composition with elements of baroque decoration creates the impression of a cozy urban dwelling that has preserved its historical appearance within a modern context.
