Identification code: 300020599



Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to architectural style associated with the fourth of the traditional five classical orders of architecture, that also include Doric, Ionic, Corinthian, and Composite. It is often described as a simplification of the Doric style, and it is distinguished from other styles by fewer and bolder moldings, no triglyphs or other decoration on the frieze, no decorative details on the entablature or capitals, and generally no fluting on the column, though in Neoclassical works the shafts may have rusticated bands. For the assemblage forming associated columns, "Tuscan order."
