Art Nouveau Decorative Facade with Mascaron and Star Motif

#2661. Art Nouveau Decorative Facade with Mascaron and Star Motif

The image showcases a magnificent example of a decorative facade in Art Nouveau (or Jugendstil) style, located in the triangular pediment of a building. The facade is painted in a warm yellow-ochre color, which effectively contrasts with the white stucco elements.

The central element of the composition is a triple window with arched tops, around which rich sculptural decoration is organized. The upper part of the pediment is crowned with an expressive stucco mask (mascaron) stylized as a mythological creature with flowing hair that smoothly transitions into floral ornaments. This technique is typical for Art Nouveau architecture with its love for natural, flowing forms.

The windows in the pediment are decorated with stars, creating a romantic atmosphere, with one window displaying a star pattern. The lower part of the decorative composition contains wave-like elements alternating with small sculptural details in the form of shells or flowers. The overall composition demonstrates the asymmetrical balance characteristic of Art Nouveau and exceptional attention to detail, emphasizing the organic unity of architecture and decorative art.
