The image showcases a magnificent example of a city mansion in the Beaux-Arts style with Neo-Baroque elements. The facade of building No. 55 features exquisite detailing and symmetrical composition. The central section is adorned with a luxurious entrance portal with decorative consoles and stucco work, above which sits an elegant balcony with intricate wrought iron railings.
The architectural treatment of the entrance group is impressive in its elaboration: massive decorative brackets support the balcony, while the portal itself is adorned with fine stone carving and framed by graceful elements. The entrance door with its wrought iron grille and warm interior lighting creates a welcoming atmosphere.
The upper part of the facade is decorated with an ornate cartouche above the second-floor windows, giving the building special expressiveness. The contrast between the light stone of the main facade and the red brick side elements creates a striking interplay of textures. Neat greenery on the balcony and above the upper cornice complements the composition, softening the strictness of the architectural forms.
Notable are also the small details — an oval window with decorative framing to the right of the entrance and an elegant wrought iron grille on the basement window to the left, demonstrating the architect's attention to every element of the facade.
