A corbel is a fascinating architectural element that can be found in various structures around the world. One such example is at the Chapel of Commanderie templiere d'Avalleur, located in Bar-sur-Seine. This stunning corbel showcases intricate details and craftsmanship, adding to the beauty of this historical chapel. Another notable they are be seen in the interior detail at Westminster Abbey in London. In this black and white photo, you can appreciate the timeless elegance of this Arab-Moorish architectural decoration. Its creator remains unknown, but their talent shines through in every delicate curve and pattern. Moving forward in time, we come across a London Trade Card featuring William Hogarth, an engraver known for his exceptional skills. The card itself displays a captivating corbel design that captures attention with its unique style and artistic flair. Fast forwarding to 1939, we encounter another remarkable corbel created by Harry Mann Waddell. This particular piece stands out due to its modern aesthetic while still paying homage to traditional designs. Traveling across borders brings us to Castle Howel in County Kilkenny, Ireland. Here, amidst breathtaking scenery captured by George Virtue's engraving from the 1860s, we find yet another impressive corbel adorning this ancient castle. The Monastery Church of Notre-Dame-de-la-Grande-Sauve presents several intriguing animal-inspired corbels. From masks with teeth fastened on human legs to protruding tongues or sprouting leaves - each one tells a story and adds character to this sacred place. Lastly, let's not forget about wooden corbels which have their own charm and rustic appeal. These versatile pieces can enhance any space with their natural warmth and organic textures. Whether it's an intricately carved masterpiece or a simple wooden structure; whether it adorns chapels or castles; whether it hails from historic times or contemporary creations - the corbel remains an architectural element that continues to captivate and inspire.
