#7215. Emerald Art Nouveau: Glazed Ceramic Façade with Floral Ornamentation

The image showcases an exquisite example of ceramic architectural cladding with rich ornamentation in Art Nouveau or Neo-Gothic style. These glazed ceramic panels in a deep emerald green color create a striking textural contrast against the red-brown brickwork, forming an expressive composition on the building's façade.

The relief details display intricate floral patterns with the characteristic sinuous forms and foliage typical of Art Nouveau. Cross-shaped elements stand out, symmetrically arranged to create a rhythmic structure across the panel. The three-dimensional texture creates a rich interplay of light and shadow, emphasizing the plasticity of the decoration. The glazed surface adds a special luster and depth to the green color, characteristic of architectural ceramics from the early 20th century.

This type of terracotta or majolica decoration was often used in the design of prestigious public buildings and apartment houses during the Art Nouveau period, giving them uniqueness and artistic expressiveness. The craftsmanship and preservation of details indicate the high quality of the original production and the cultural value of this architectural element.
