Définir l’espace urbain par le biais de la décoration des façades. Considérations sur les statues du Palais Lloyd de Timișoara
Defining urban space through façade decoration - considerations on the statues on the façade of the Lloyd Palace in Timișoara

Summary/Abstract: Situated in the artistic cultural horizon of Timișoara - European city -, the present survey examines the fragments of models of a civilization reflected in the field of façade ornamentation, promoting the values of the artistic heritage at the beginning of the twentieth century, a chronological level that refers to the evolution on European coordinates, but also to the West-East confluences, shaping a syncretic artistic identity in which eclectic plastic formulas are combined. The art of the façade reflects the imaginary of any stylistic period, which emerges as the expression of an ideological situation, to which local traditions or those that penetrate the space of confluences in which Banat was before the union of 1918 also contribute.
