1 Greek Architecture …continues

2 Doric Ionic Corinthian

3 Suzy says… “After helping my daughter this week put together a Greek Architecture project, it made me appreciate the columns that were at some of the beautiful homes in our town.” “It was amazing to read about the craftsmanship that took years and sweat to put together these wonderful buildings at that time period. And the columns were like the icing on the cake....In fact you will find these same shape of columns when a wedding cake is assembled.”

4 “Most of the columns in Greece at that time, 450 B.C., were made of limestone, sometimes perhaps marble if you could afford it. They were all man made and carved...no machines here.” “I am so glad I helped my daughter with her project. It really opened my eyes to all of the Greek Architecture that has migrated to my town and has taught me the 3 main styles that they used.”

5 The Sanborn House has examples of both Corinthian and Ionic.
