The image shows a magnificent fragment of an Art Nouveau façade. The central element of the composition is an exquisite decorative motif above the windows, executed in the characteristic plastic, organic manner typical of this style. The architectural ornament includes smooth, flowing lines reminiscent of plant forms — stylized leaves and stems creating a sense of movement and growth.
Particularly expressive is the metal decorative element, designed in the form of elegant curving lines with a copper-bronze sheen, which contrasts with the light brickwork of the façade. Above it is a wrought iron balcony with an openwork pattern characteristic of Art Nouveau, including scrolls and floral motifs.
The architectural composition creates an effect of flowing forms: the arched windows of the lower level, the smooth lines of the decorative element, and the curve of the balcony railing form a single wave-like structure. This is a striking example of Art Nouveau architects' desire to create a holistic artistic image where functional elements of the building are transformed into works of decorative art.
