The image shows an element of architectural decoration — a fragment of wrought metal ornament in the form of stylized sunflowers. This decorative element is made of dark green painted metal with golden accents that highlight the shape of the sunflowers.
The fragment demonstrates fine metalwork characteristic of Art Nouveau or Modern style from the late 19th to early 20th century. The sinuous lines of the stems and graceful curves of the leaves create a dynamic, organic composition. Special attention is paid to details: the petals of the sunflowers are individually crafted, and the contrast between the dark green background and the golden flowers emphasizes the dimensionality and expressiveness of the composition.
According to the caption, this architectural ornament is located in Douai, France, which corresponds to the rich tradition of French decorative art during the Art Nouveau period. Such elements were often used to decorate balconies, gates, window gratings, and other parts of building facades, giving them a unique artistic character and demonstrating the craftsmanship of local artisans.
