MONGOLS CHINA AND THE SILK ROAD
Corinthian capital - from Ai Khanoum, Bactria (now Afghanistan) Hellenistic with Eastern influences.
[Polykleitos the Younger,Corinthian capital,ca.350BCE,from the tholos, Epidauros,Greece,Late Classical Period]It is an ornate architecture with tendrils and flowers emerging from the double row of acanthus leaves,wrapping around the echinus.It has similar appearance on four sides without distinct corners like the Ionic order or fixed place for metopes and triglyphs like the Doric order.Thus, It has much flexible rules for modifying proportions and details.(Klein144 and Oxford Art Online)
