Delicate Art Nouveau Metalwork Façade Element

#1561. Delicate Art Nouveau Metalwork Façade Element

The image showcases an elegant wrought iron metalwork element of a façade, executed in the Art Nouveau style. The detail represents a decorative grille, likely part of a balcony railing or window frame of a historic building.

The structure features flowing, organic lines and spiral motifs characteristic of Art Nouveau. Large spirals are positioned at the edges of the composition, creating a symmetrical structure. The central part is adorned with wave-like horizontal bands and thin vertical elements forming a delicate pattern. Signs of age are visible — the metal is partially affected by corrosion, particularly noticeable on the darker sections of the base.

Behind the grille, a blue background is visible — possibly a painted wall of the building or glass, which adds depth and expressiveness to the entire composition. Such decorative elements represent an important aspect of architectural heritage from the turn of the 19th-20th centuries, when special attention was paid to the artistic metalwork and creation of expressive façade details.
