Modillion
A modillion is an ornate bracket, a corbel, such as underneath a cornice which it helps to support, more elaborate than dentils. All three are selectively used as adjectival historic past participles as to what co-supports or simply adorns any high structure of a building, such as a terrace of a roof, parapet, pediment/entablature, balcony, cornice band or roof cornice. They occur classically under a Corinthian or a Composite cornice, but may support any type of eaves cornice. They may be carved or plain.Gallery
