Classical contrapposto (counterbalance) - human body as a structure, - Balance: shift of weight around the flexible axis of the spine - The frontal character of earlier statues has been broken: motion while at rest - Combination of realism and idealization - Polykleitos wrote the Canon (Greek for measure, rule, or law ), where he theorized the recipe of beauty

Main differences: the column Between column and floor there is a base

Main differences: the column Ionic shaft: more elongated proportions

Main differences: the column Distinctive scrolled volute The capital (between column and architrave) has a simple, geometrical shape

Main differences: the frieze The frieze is composed by an alternation of geometric sections (triglyphs), and figural sections of sculpted reliefs (metopes) The frieze is a unique sculpted relief strand that develops all around the building without interruption
