#7283. Art Nouveau Brick Facade: Urban Townhouse with Expressive Bay Window

The image showcases an excellent example of early 20th century Art Nouveau urban architecture. The central building is constructed of red brick with a characteristic combination of functionality and decorative elements typical for that period. The facade of this three-story townhouse features an asymmetrical composition with an emphasis on large windows and elegant arched elements.

Particularly noteworthy is the second floor with its expressive bay window and large windows with semi-circular tops, framed by white stone elements that create a striking contrast with the brickwork. Above the bay window is a decorative frieze with ornamental motifs. An iron balcony with an elegant wrought iron railing complements the facade composition.

The building is flanked by neighboring structures in various styles – to the left, a house with mosaic elements and arched windows built in yellow brick, and to the right, a more restrained facade with classical decorative elements. Such proximity creates an ensemble typical of European cities, where diverse architectural solutions coexist harmoniously.
