Walter Armstrong translation
One curious example of this is figured in the work of M. Chipiez, Histoire critique de l'Origine et de la Formation des Ordres grecs, p. 20. See also Layard, Discoveries, p. 444, where a bas-relief from the palace of Sennacherib is figured, upon which appears a coffer supported by a foot in the shape of a column, which ends in a regular volute.
