A Classroom Frieze

 Frieze: The middle element layer of an entablature, between the architrave and the cornice. Detail on front of Athenian Treasury The frieze may be plain or may be composed of bas-relief (sculpted figures and shallow- projecting images). If decorated, the frieze may depict a sequential narrative. Triglyphs and metopes also make up decorative elements.

Architectural Components  Tholos: A small, round building. Sometimes built underground, as in a Mycenaean tomb.  Relief Sculpture: An artwork where a modeled form is raised, or in sunken-relief lowered, from a flat background from which the main elements of the composition project (or sink).  Pediment: A triangular gable found over the narrow ends of buildings. Formed by an entablature and the sloping roof or a raking cornice. Decorated with sculpted figures, carved either freestanding or in relief.  Entablature: In Classical orders the horizontal elements above the columns and capitals, consisting of architrave, a frieze and a cornice.  Architrave: A module of masonry, supporting the superstructure running from the top of the column capitals.  Tholos: A small, round building.
