Even country estates like Castle Howard showcase architectural splendor through their north front adorned with elegant architraves. These elements add sophistication and charm to these English country houses. Not limited to buildings alone, even fountains bear witness to the beauty of architraves. The Fountain Perseia at Mycenae stands tall with its ornate detailing capturing our attention.
