#1582. Art Nouveau Stained Glass Facade with Arched Decoration

The image shows an architectural element of a building facade, executed in a style that combines features of Art Nouveau and Neoclassicism. The central focus is a tall window with an elegant stained glass construction, framed by stone masonry.

The stained glass window has a geometric pattern characteristic of early Art Nouveau. The central part is divided into vertical sections with diamond-shaped elements and accents in the form of oval inserts. The side panels of the stained glass contain a more complex ornamental design with repeating floral motifs, including stylized flowers and vases.

The arched top of the window is decorated with a bas-relief featuring a decorative composition that includes plant elements and geometric forms. Of particular interest is the semicircular niche above the window with carefully crafted stucco, creating a "crown" effect over the entire composition.

The lower part of the window opening is decorated with a frieze with a wave-like ornament, which contrasts with the geometry of the upper part and creates a visual transition to the building's foundation. The facade cladding is made of light, likely granite stone, which gives the structure monumentality and elegance.
