Talk:Ionic order
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is missing a vital picture, namely an overview shot of a classical Ionic temple. It has shorter range pictures, but none showing a building as a whole. Zzthex 06:46, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
- Ionic is a mode, as in music the key of E flat is a mode in which any form can be written. There could be an overall illustration of an Ionic Greek temple or an Ionic public library in Iowa. But, overall, they wouldn't look very much different from a Doric temple or a Doric library. It's in the details and the rhythms that Ionic can be recognized. --Wetman 08:23, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
