Summary edit
.jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | Only a single capital and a few fragments survive of the pilasters that decorated the interior of the cella of the Temple of Mars Ultor. They are based on the Corinthian order but, instead of scrolled volutes, the corners of the abacus are supported by protomes of Pegasus, the wings of which extend back to form elegant acanthus volutes. The horses, themselves, with stiff archaic manes, emerge from vine shoots covered with acanthus leaves that curl and terminate in rosettes. More acanthus leaves decorate the lower part of the capital. |
