Reference: ZF1272

Corinthian capital. Carved sandstone. 17th century. Capital made of sandstone carved in its colour, with two bands of acanthus leaves, volutes in the corners and towards the centre and a decorative vegetal element in the centre of the upper part. Due to its decorative elements, it can be linked to the Corinthian order, the most ornate of the architectural orders of Classical Antiquity and whose first known example was in the Temple of Apollo in Basas in 427 BC. Later it was very common to find it (with its derivations) in European art. Compare with the columns of the Pantheon in Rome, Italy.
