The Three Greek Orders
  • The three Greek orders are the Doric order, the
    Ionic order, and the Corinthian order.
  • The Doric order was the first and simplest of the
    three Greek orders. The Doric is the only order
    that normally has no base.
  • The Ionic order was the second of the three Greek
    orders. It has a capital decorated with curved
    spiral scrolls called volutes.
  • The Corinthian order became the last of the Greek
    orders. It resembles the Ionic order but has an
    elaborate capital that is discovered with
    carvings of leaves of the acanthus plant.
