#1240. Elegant Art Nouveau Façade with Wrought Iron French Balcony and Stained Glass Detail

The image depicts an elegant architectural fragment of a historical façade in the Art Nouveau or Jugendstil style. The central element of the composition is a French balcony with an exquisite wrought iron railing showcasing flowing, organic forms characteristic of this style. The ironwork is adorned with intricate floral and vegetal ornaments that create an impression of lightness and airiness in the structure.

Behind the balcony stands a tall balcony door with wooden frames in a warm brown shade. Particularly noteworthy is the stained glass element in the transom above the door, decorated with stylized floral patterns featuring green elements—a typical decorative technique of early 20th century Art Nouveau. The doorway is framed by a light-colored stone portal that contrasts with the gray brickwork of the façade.

The combination of materials is particularly interesting: the textured gray brick of the main wall, the smooth light stone of the portal, the dark metal of the railing, and the warm wood of the door unit create a harmonious composition demonstrating refined artistic taste. This architectural element is an excellent example of the attention to detail and craftsmanship characteristic of urban architecture from the turn of the 19th-20th centuries.
