#4761. Munich Jugendstil: Peacock Facade

The image showcases a magnificent example of Jugendstil architecture (German Art Nouveau) located in Munich. The facade demonstrates the characteristic flowing, fluid lines and rich decorative ornamentation typical of this style.

The upper part of the facade features a wave-like pediment with an elegant round window at its center. Particularly noteworthy are the symmetrically placed stylized peacock figures on both sides of the pediment — a typical Art Nouveau motif emphasizing the connection with natural forms. The delicate stucco work with floral patterns frames the central window and creates an exquisite contrast with the more subdued wall surface.

The color scheme of the facade is presented in muted tones — predominantly beige with dark green inserts that highlight the architectural details. Below the central window is a small balcony with a metal railing of simple yet elegant design. The facade is also adorned with vertical decorative elements imitating botanical motifs.

Overall, the building represents a beautiful example of early 20th century architecture, where functionality harmoniously combined with aesthetic expressiveness and attention to detail.
