The work of Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola is the inspiration for Chadsworth's Columns. Vignola, a 16th century Italian, is regardes as the authority on Greek and Roman columnar orders. He sought to establish and formulate guidelines for the use of these supports. The Tuscan coulmn is noted for its simplicity and is an adaptation of the Doric. The columns of the Temple of Piety in Rome and the Lower Order of the Amphitheater at Arles are of the Tuscan order. The Greek Doric is the oldest, simplest and sturdiest of the five Classical Orders. Distinguishing characteristics of the Doric Order are that it has no base or plinth and that it is thicker than an Ionic or a Corinthian column of the same height. The Doric has shallow flutes and an entasis, which is a flat curve on the tapering shaft. The columns of the Parthenon, the most famous temple on the Acropolis in Athens, are of the Doric Order. The Ionic has twenty-four flutes or vertical grooves which emphasize its height. The volutes, or stone spirals, are the most distinctive feature of these columns. The distinctive capital resembles an open scroll. The columns of the Erechtheum, a temple on the Acropolis, are of the Ionic Order. The Corinthian is distinguished by the tall inverted bell-shaped capital which is decorated with carved aacanthus leaves and small volutes. Almost all of the buildings erected by the Romans employ this Order. The columns of the Monument of Lysicrates and Olympieion in Athens are of the Corinthian Order. Chatsworth has a new polystone balustrade line. The catalog is online. www.columns.com Architectural Detail has been in business for nearly two decades.
