The Corinthian Order of Columns
is one of the three main Classical Greek orders of columns: Doric,
Ionic and Corinthian. Corinthian uses an Attic Base. The Corinthian
order is typified by the Acanthus leaves with a Fleuron or Flower in the
center of the Abacus. The entablature has modillion blocks, dentil and egg
and dart mouldings.
