Gargoyle on Corinthian Capital - Architectural Illustration #3689971 (License: Personal Use)

This finely detailed pen-and-ink drawing depicts a grotesque gargoyle with pointed ears, sharp teeth, and expressive eyes, reclining casually on a square abacus above a highly ornamental Corinthian capital. The capital features acanthus leaves and volutes rendered with precise cross-hatching, evoking 19th-century architectural illustration styles. The composition balances medieval symbolism with neoclassical form, suggesting a decorative or symbolic architectural element rather than a functional waterspout.
