Italy (Massafra)

The Facade Order, Corinthian Capital, and Aedicular Surrounds of the Complex of Sant'Agostino in Massafra

2177

Late Renaissance / Pugliese Baroque Transition (16th–17th Century).

Serves as a structural load-bearing order and rhythmic surface articulation for the church's facade, breaking up the expansive stone wall while establishing a classical ordering system of vertical supports and horizontal cornices.
