#1288. Decorative Art Nouveau façade railing with butterfly motifs and floral ornaments

The image depicts a fragment of a decorative metal railing executed in the Art Nouveau style with elements of artistic forging. This elegant grille demonstrates the high craftsmanship of foundry and blacksmithing from the early 20th century. The main decorative elements are stylized motifs of butterflies or insects in the lower part and floral ornaments in the central and upper sections of the vertical bars.

The railing consists of rhythmically repeating vertical elements with the twisted form characteristic of Art Nouveau. Each element is adorned with three main decorative nodes: in the lower part – a stylized image of a butterfly or bee with open wings, in the center – a floral motif resembling a rosette, and in the upper part – an openwork finial in the form of a stylized flower or leaf. Painted white, these elements stand out in stark contrast against the dark background of the shutters or blinds.

This type of decorative façade treatment is typical for residential and public buildings of the Art Nouveau and Eclectic periods, where great attention was paid to the artistic elaboration of even utilitarian elements. The harmonious combination of functionality and aesthetics allows this railing not only to perform a protective function but also to serve as a notable element of the architectural design of the building.
