Entablature

almost like a piece of sculpture because of its little architectonic use. The building has Brunelleschi’s style. It has perfect proportions and is composed of Tuscan columns. The façade of the building has three levels and it is divided by two entablatures. Each level is emphasized by a central element, the portal below, rose window, and royal coat of arms. The Tempietto as it stands today differs slightly from Bramante’s original conception. It is located in a square courtyard. The architect

Ash-Lawn Highlands, which is located southwest of Charlottesville, Virginia, is a basic Colonial, Georgian styled structure that has a side-gabled roof. Including an addition to the structure’s façade, it is four bays long. The structure’s façade is erected on a red brick and stone foundation and smooth white painted wooden clapboards. The façade is symmetrical and divided into two parts by a single porch, which attaches to a one-story portico with an attached pediment. Flanked by double-hung sash

the Greeks was the Corinthian order. This column was the slenderest of all the columns and the tallest. It was built to the proportions of a young women and came out of the Greek Islands. The top just like the others housed a pediment, but the entablature only had dentils. What really sets the Corinthian order apart although is the sculpted capital in the shape of acanthus leaves. This order was the most ornate and wasn’t built until Hellenistic times in Ancient Greece. Nevertheless, the Greek orders

Modern Architecture around the globe had been influenced by ancient Roman and Greek architectural. Although both ancient Romans and Greeks are recognized for their innovations in architecture having both constructed a variety of buildings and structures that can still be appreciated today, they appear to have concentrated mostly on the creation of temples which at first sight seem similar but in reality they each diverged and had their own identity and served for different purposes. Ancient Greek

was traditionally a gateway, consisting of a pair of massive pylons joined by a semi-circular vault. The arch was framed by two columns or more, that were either engaged or stood on projecting pedestals. The columns are appeared to support the entablature, the horizontal section across the top of the vault which separated from the attic section. The attic was a piece of masonry that was decorated with relief sculpture and statuary. The Arch of Titus is rather quite a traditional structure. It is

buildings rested an Entablature. This is a classic triangular shaped façade, or front of a building. The Entablature consists of four parts. The lowest part is the Architrave, which sits on top of the capital or upper part of a column. On top of that, the frieze was typically decorated with horizontal bands. The Cornice forms the upper part of the Entablature and extols beyond the frieze on the sides. On the very top sits a Pediment, a triangular segment between the lower Entablature and the roof

As evidenced by many of its historic buildings, Fredericton was greatly influenced by the neoclassical architectural period that swept Europe and North America during the 18th century (Young 1982, 10). This period was marked by an influx of buildings designed to reflect the architecture of ancient Greece and Rome (Faulkner 2009, Neo-classical architecture). It grew from the burgeoning interest in classical antiquities and antiquarianism, a movement led by Englishmen such as Lord Elgin and William

The Roman Empire was a very intelligent civilization, they were responsible for many astounding creations. They were very well-known because of their outstanding contributions to Architecture, like many immense buildings, canals, and entertainment centers, and several of them are still standing today. We can look around our modern cities and compare today’s architecture to that of the ancient Romans. The Roman civilization is known for its Imperial powers during the long reign in the ancient world

frieze was truly innovative and was to prove extremely influential (see II Gesu)." Indeed, both buildings have very similar designs. Some shared key features between them would be the pediment of the top of the building, the orders (column and entablature combinations) on two stories, and most of all,

levelling course, three steps on top of the levelling course, and the stylobate on top of the steps marking the floor of the temple. The temple consisted on cult rooms surrounded by the colonnade. There were a few differences in column forms and entablature.
