The oldest, simplest, and most massive of the
three Greek orders is the________, which was
applied to temples beginning in the 7th century
B.C. The capitals are plain with a rounded
section at the bottom, known as the echinus, and
a square at the top, called the abacus. The
entablature has a distinctive frieze decorated
with triglyphs. In between the triglyphs are
spaces, called metopes. The frieze is separated
from the architrave by a narrow band called the
regula. The Doric order reached its pinnacle of
perfection in the Parthenon.
The ______ order is the ____________, which
wasn't used much by the Greeks. It is named
after the city of Corinth, where sculptor
Callimachus supposedly invented it at the end of
the 5th century B.C. after he spotted a goblet
surrounded by leaves. the Corinthian is similar
to the Ionic order in its base,column, and
entablature, but its capital is far more ornate,
carved with two tiers of curly acanthus leaves.
It is called ________because it developed in the
Ionian islands in the 6th century B.C. Roman
historian Vitruvius compared this delicate order
to a female form, in contrast to the stockier
"male" Doric order. It's easy to recognize
because of the two scrolls, called volutes, on
its capital. The volutes may have been based on
nautilus shells or animal horns. Above the
capital, the entablature is narrower than the
Doric, with a frieze containing a continuous band
of sculpture.
