Summary

Description
English: Remains of the capital of a Composite column in Ephesus (in present-day coastal Turkey).
A composite capital may be seen as a Ionic capital placed over a Corinthian capital with the Ionic volutes at the corners, perhaps reduced in size and importance, above the two ranks of stylized acanthus leaves. The leaves may be quite stiff, schematic and dry, or they may be extravagantly drilled and undercut, naturalistic and spiky.
Nederlands: Overblijfselen van het kapiteel van een Korintische zuil.
Kenmerkend voor de Composiete orde is de versiering van de kapitelen, geïnspireerd door de bladeren van de acanthus, met op de vier hoeken een gereduceerde voluut uit de Ionische orde (die naderhand ook verwaarloosd zou worden).

Română: Rămășițele capitelului unei coloane compozite din Efes (în Turcia zilelor noastre).
Un capitel compozit poate să fie văzut ca unul ionic pus peste unul corintic cu volute ionice la colțuri, defapt reduse în mărime și importanță. Frunzele pot să fie destul de rigide, schematice și uscate, sau pot să fie sculptate extravagant, naturalistic și ascuțit.
