Corinthian capital - the top of the column of the Corinthian architectural order. According to the legend, the ancient Greek master Callimachus, walking in the vicinity of Corinth, came across the grave mound of “one girl, a citizen of Corinth”, which, according to the funeral custom of poor people, was decorated with a simple willow “basket with little things”, covered with tiles on top. Over time, acanthus leaves sprouted through the bars of the basket and formed something like a bouquet. Callimachus, "delighted by the novelty of the look and form," made for the Corinthians "several columns according to this pattern, determined their proportionality, and from that time established the rules for the buildings of the Corinthian order." The background of the picture is painted black and embroidered with Champagne-colored sequins, which look like twinkling stars or fireflies, and like the sparkle of New Year's tinsel and fireworks, and like the sparkle of jewelry, and like the lights of a night city from a height of flight. All this creates a pleasant, exciting mood.

Curlydafna is a contemporary Russian artist with a bachelor's degree in architecture and a master's degree in art history. Her works are in private collections in the USA, Indonesia and Russia.

Her paintings and drawings reflect the spirit of postmodernism, a combination of different styles and techniques. She studies different forms of interaction, sometimes even between incompatible concepts and objects. In her works, she is looking for new options for depicting familiar phenomena and unusual compositions. She combines pomp, impeccability and novelty with devastation, decadence and underground, reflecting all the diversity of the world.

Through her work, she explores the world and herself from new perspectives. Works mainly in graphics and watercolor and acrylic painting with the addition of embroidery, ornament, text and volumetric elements.
