#2663. Art Nouveau Facade with Elegant Window Framing

The image showcases a magnificent example of Art Nouveau or Jugendstil architecture. The window composition appears as a vertical element protruding from the beige facade of the building. This architectural detail is framed with white decorative elements, creating a striking contrast with the main color of the facade.

The upper part of the composition is adorned with an exquisite wavy ornament featuring the fluid lines and spirals characteristic of Art Nouveau. The central upper window has an arched form with decorative columns on both sides. Below it lies a textured surface with a geometric relief pattern, illustrating the transition from the fluidity of Art Nouveau to more structured forms.

Particularly noteworthy are the side elements with decorative columns, embellished with repeated relief motifs resembling stylized cocoons or grains. These vertical elements give the facade a rhythmic quality and emphasize the height of the structure. The lower part of the composition culminates in three windows separated by slender vertical elements, creating a sense of lightness despite the massive decoration.

This architectural detail is an excellent example of how early 20th-century decorative elements combined functionality with artistic expression, transforming an ordinary window into a work of art.
