October night at corner of Dzirnavu Street and Krišjāņa Barona Street in city core of Riga, Latvia. October 28, 2024

Tenement house with shops built in 1901. Architect Konstantīns Pēkšēns. The neo-Baroque facades of the building are saturated with ornamental elements, balustrades, cartouches, groups of sculptures in pathos and other plastic elements. The house, together with the buildings at 5 and 7/9 Kr.Barona Street, forms a single architectural ensemble, the architecture of which reflects the development of Konstantīns Pēkšēns' creative handwriting, from luxurious, pompous eclecticism to rational, applied Art Nouveau.
