#7431. Carved Turquoise Facade: A Gem of Wooden Art Nouveau with Openwork Carving

The facade presented in the image is a beautiful example of wooden architecture in the Russian Art Nouveau style with elements of traditional wood carving. The gable of the house is designed in a triangular shape with characteristic decorative finishing — intricate openwork carving forms a complex ornamental pattern that stands out particularly against the turquoise-green walls.

The central part of the facade deserves special attention with its window opening framed by decorative columns and rich carved patterns. The gable's canopy is adorned with a fan-shaped element, creating the effect of sun rays. The contrast between the bright red roof and the light-colored carvings emphasizes the architectural details and gives the building expressiveness.

The architectural composition combines symmetry and decorative abundance characteristic of wooden mansions from the late 19th to early 20th century. The carved window frames, valances, fascia boards, and other decorative elements demonstrate the high craftsmanship of woodcarvers and serve as an example of the architectural art of their time.
