Abandoned Mansion in Tbilisi

Haunting view of an abandoned neoclassical mansion in Tbilisi in an advanced state of decay. The two-story facade features elegant arched windows and doorways, but the roof has collapsed leaving only skeletal beams against the sky. Plaster peels dramatically from the walls, revealing brick beneath. Graffiti covers the lower portions including 'HAITA' in blue. Wild vegetation grows unchecked in the foreground. The building speaks to Tbilisi's layers of history and the fates of once-grand structures.
