The image showcases an exquisite example of a neoclassical facade with distinct beaux-arts elements. This architectural composition features refined detailing and symmetrical arrangement of elements, typical for this style.
The central window is framed by an impressive portal with four Corinthian columns supporting a richly decorated entablature. Each column features a characteristic capital with acanthus leaves and volutes, creating a sense of luxury and classical harmony. Above the portal sits a massive cornice with dentils (small tooth-like blocks), which give the entire composition rhythm and visual richness.
Particularly noteworthy are the decorative medallions and cartouches located both at the upper part of the composition and at the lower part of the portal. These elements likely serve heraldic or symbolic functions, which was common for public buildings from the late 19th to early 20th century. It's interesting to note the use of musical motifs in one of the lower cartouches, where a lyre can be distinguished.
The entire facade is constructed from light-colored brick, which creates a warm background for the white stucco details that stand out effectively against it. Such professional facade design using contrasting materials can be adapted in modern construction by employing lighter and more accessible materials to imitate classical elements.
For private home construction, this style can be interpreted more modestly: using simplified pilasters instead of full columns, adding a cornice with a simplified profile, or applying decorative elements only at key points of the facade, such as above the entrance group or main window.
