Art Nouveau Window with Marble Framing and Geometric Pattern on Historic Building Façade

#5925. Art Nouveau Window with Marble Framing and Geometric Pattern on Historic Building Façade

The photograph showcases a remarkable Art Nouveau window, characteristic of early 20th century architecture. The window opening is designed as a semicircular arch with massive marble framing that contrasts with the rougher texture of the building's wall. The marble finishing displays noticeable cracks, indicating the age of the structure.

The wooden window frame is executed in a manner typical of Art Nouveau, with an elegant geometric pattern. The central element of the composition is a circle inscribed in the upper part of the window, from which radial and horizontal bars extend, forming a harmonious geometric design. The wooden elements are painted in a dark brown color, creating an expressive contrast with the white marble framing.

A small opening vent in the lower left part of the window serves as a functional element, characteristic of the traditional approach to ventilation from the beginning of the last century. Light curtains are visible behind the glass, giving the window a lived-in appearance. The windowsill is laconic with minimal decoration, which emphasizes the elegance of the main window structure.

Such architectural elements are valuable examples of urban development from the Art Nouveau period and deserve careful attention during the restoration of historic building façades.
