The image showcases a fragment of the Casa Dugnani facade, located at via Saffi, 9 in Milan. This is an exquisite example of Art Nouveau style (known as Liberty style in the Italian version) with characteristic decorative elements.
The facade is adorned with elegant stained glass windows featuring expressive floral motifs of sunflowers. The stained glass is divided into upper and lower sections, where the upper part presents stylized sunflowers with green stems against a light background, while the lower section continues the plant ornament with wave-like lines typical of Art Nouveau.
The window framing is constructed from light-colored stone with delicate carvings and decorative elements. A red brick masonry is visible in the lower part of the facade, creating a contrast with the light stone elements. Between the windows, there are refined architectural details in the form of small columns and decorative capitals. Below the windows, a sculptural medallion can be seen, adding elegance to the overall composition.
This is a magnificent example of Italian Art Nouveau from the early 20th century, where natural motifs are transformed into refined decorative elements, demonstrating the mastery of Italian architects and craftsmen of that period.
