Text Appearing Before Image:
CAPITAL. The ancient Eonians employed a part of the Corinthianand a part of the Ionic capitals, and from them composeda capital of perfect beauty. The plan and profile of thiscapital have the same proportions as the Corinthian. Thevariations are : Instead of the flower stems, the Compos-ite has the volute of the Ionic capital. The dimensionsof the upper and lower leaves Vignola makes of the samedimensions as the Corinthian, changing them, however,from olive leaves to the leaves of the acanthus. Over the second leaves he puts the volute in the sameway as in the Ionic capital. This volute is, with the abacus,16 parts high, and is arranged as in the Corinthian. Inthe place of the stem of the small volutes of the Corinthianare two flowers. The bell is made more prominent with afillet, an ornamented bead, and an ornamented quarter-roundmoulding (^^egg and dart^). In the center of the side of the abacus is a flower, as inmost antique capitals. The plate shows the dimensions of the details.
Text Appearing After Image:
PLATE XXVIII. THE COMPOSITE ENTABLATURE. This Entablature and Capital are, like the Corinthian,educed from many ancient Eoman examples. The plateshows the dimensions of the details. This entablature does not have the brackets and somesmall details of the Corinthian. In the ornamentation of the mouldings no rigid rule ofspacing or location is enforced, because of their small size. PLATE XXIX. THE ATTIC BASE. The Attic Base has been used indiscriminately for all theOrders except the Tuscan, because of its beauty ; but it isonly appropriate for the Ionic. The dimensions of its details are seen in Plate XXIX.
