An immense, columned temple built almost entirely of marble, Athens's ancient Parthenon is the consummate example of classical Greek architecture. Its legendary balance was achieved through a number of devices employed to counteract certain peculiarities of human vision. Lines that appear straight in the Parthenon are found on measurement to be curved. Distances and widths that appear equal are in fact expertly varied. Columns taper and tilt inward, lending a certain lightness to the massive stone structure.
座落于雅典的古帕臺農(nóng)神廟,是座幾乎全是大理石結(jié)構(gòu)的雄偉精妙的圓柱型巨殿。它是古典希臘式建筑完美之典范。它運用了多種設(shè)計來抵消人類特殊的視覺偏差,從而達到令人驚嘆的均衡。帕臺農(nóng)神廟上看似筆直的線條,經(jīng)測定證實為曲線。距離和寬度看似相等的格局,實則千變?nèi)f化,巧奪天工。圓柱逐漸變細,向內(nèi)傾斜,給這巨石結(jié)構(gòu)帶來幾分輕巧的感覺。
