==References == | <p> the latest developed and the most ornamental of the three orders of Greek architecture. The column (q.v.) is about ten diameters in height, and is fluted. The capital is over a diameter of the column in height, has two rows of richly-carved leaves of acanthus, olive, or other plant, from above which roll out volutes, surmounted by leaves, and crowned by a moulding, called the abacus. The base is richly moulded. The [[Corinthian]] order was largely introduced in the [[Renaissance]] architecture, both in ecclesiastical and civil buildings. (See [[Architecture]]). </p> | ||
