Porte Decore

3D ModelNoAI

Door with its jamb, Antwerp, 1633 in a cartouche, oak. Musée d’Art et d’Histoire (Musée du Cinquantenaire, Brussels, Belgium). Made of 350 pictures with RealityCapture.

Contemporary architectural treatises gave the styles of capitals symbolic significance. In this case, the Corinthian crowning of the columns would express the luxury and comfortable position of the owner.
