#4808. Decorative Art Nouveau Facade with Solar Bas-Relief and Lion Mascaron

The photograph captures a fragment of a luxurious facade of a historic building executed in Art Nouveau style with Neoclassical elements. The upper part of the facade is adorned with an elegant semicircular lunette window with wrought-iron filigree railings, creating the effect of a small balcony. The window is framed by decorative molding in the form of wings, which gives the architectural composition lightness and elevation.

The central element of the composition is a sun bas-relief with a human face, positioned above the windows. This is a characteristic motif for the architecture of the late 19th to early 20th centuries, symbolizing enlightenment and a new era. Below the solar bas-relief is an impressive mascaron composition in the form of a lion's head – a classical element emphasizing the building's status.

The facade is richly decorated with floral ornaments, garlands, and stucco elements, creating an effect of opulence and abundance. The rectangular window openings are framed by exquisite casings with geometric and floral motifs. The entire facade is executed in light-colored stone or plaster, which highlights the elegance and plasticity of the architectural details.
