The Capital.

207
usually the Corinthian Capital directly borrowed from the Antique;
but the forms become freer and more varied; and, compared with
the overcharged Roman examples, simpler. The volutes at the corners
develope into independent forms, and are often replaced by dolphins,
cornucopias, and other fantastic forms, scattered instances of which
may, however, be found even in the Antique. Modern architecture,
like the Renascence, also follows these traditions.
