#1229. 1903 Catalan Modernisme Facade with Floral Ornaments and Wrought Iron Balconies

The image shows an expressive fragment of a building facade in the Catalan Modernisme (Art Nouveau) style, built in 1903, as evidenced by the date organically integrated into the decorative design. The facade demonstrates characteristic features of early 20th century modernist architecture in Catalonia, likely influenced by the work of Antoni Gaudí and his contemporaries.

The upper part of the facade is adorned with rich floral ornaments in cream color against a terracotta-red background, creating an exquisite contrast with the beige wall of the building. The decorative crest has a wavelike form with three arched elements framed by elegant curves. The central element contains the date "1903," indicating the year of construction or reconstruction of the building.

Particularly noteworthy are three French balconies with black wrought iron railings, displaying the flowing curves characteristic of Art Nouveau. Above each balcony opening are decorative ventilation grilles with various geometric patterns: vertical stripes on the sides and a diagonal cross in the center. The wooden shutters on the windows add an authentic Mediterranean character to the building.

The combination of plastic, organic forms of decoration with the geometric structure of the facade creates a harmonious composition, demonstrating the craftsmanship of architects of that era and their attention to detail, characteristic of Catalan Modernisme.
