The photograph captures an elegant metal decorative element of a facade in Art Nouveau style with Gothic motifs. The upper part features an intricate wrought iron lattice with geometric ornamentation, including curved lines, scrolls, and stylized floral elements. The symmetrical composition of the upper railing creates a rhythmic pattern against the bright blue sky.
Particularly noteworthy is the lower part of the structure, which features a row of decorative metal elements in the form of stylized bats with outstretched wings. This unusual motif creates a characteristic Gothic accent, giving the entire composition a mystical atmosphere. The elements are made of metal and contrast excellently with the yellowish background of the wall. Behind the openwork lattice of the upper part, one can notice bright pink flowers and green foliage of plants, which adds picturesqueness to the entire composition.
This decorative element is likely part of a balcony railing or roof parapet of a historic building, and demonstrates the high craftsmanship of artistic forging from the early 20th century. The combination of flowing Art Nouveau lines with Gothic motifs creates a unique architectural accent, characteristic of the eclectic urban architecture from the turn of the 19th-20th centuries.
