Fluted Corinthian pillars having elaborate designs 公开 Deposited

The fluted Corinthian pillars sport elaborate mouldings of stylized acanthus leaves and floral scrolls on their capitals. Camouflaged within the flora are figures of birds and beasts, some real and some imaginary. For example, the pillar capital in the foreground (on the right) has a hybrid creature with a human head and the body of a bird, similar to the sphinx from Greek mythology.
