An upward-angled view captures the ornate Art Nouveau facade of the former Novák department store (Dům B. Nováka) at Na Poříčí 1068/19 in Nové Město, Capital City of Prague, Czechia. The building features a light beige exterior adorned with extensive green, stylized floral and foliate metalwork, particularly along the roofline and as railings for a lower balcony. Multiple rectangular windows with dark frames and reflective blue glass are symmetrically arranged across the facade. The central and upper sections of the facade are dominated by large, multi-panel mosaics depicting idyllic, pastoral scenes. The main mosaic band portrays numerous figures in period attire engaged in various activities within a green landscape. On the left, figures include a woman in blue, a seated man in a brown hat, and a seated woman in red with a small dog. The central part shows a group of men and women dancing or interacting. The right section displays individuals reading and conversing. An upper mosaic panel, partially visible, depicts a draped figure in a similar landscape. Below the main mosaic, a decorative green metal balcony railing with intertwined botanical motifs spans the facade. Beneath the railing, a dark blue band with white letters spelling "NOVAK" (likely "DŮM B. NOVÁKA") is visible, framed by green ivy-like embellishments. The lowest visible section shows dark-framed storefront windows. Two black electrical wires or tram lines run horizontally across the middle of the image, partially obscuring the mosaics and windows, with a street lamp suspended from one of them. A clear blue sky is visible above the building.
