Bas-relief of Caryatid (right). A caryatid is a female sculpture serving as a column or pillar to support architectural structures. These architectural elements stand out for their classical elegance. The name caryatid comes from Greek mythology, from the women of the city of Caria, who, according to myth, were taken as slaves as punishment for their participation in a revolt.

Caryatids are a harmonious fusion of functionality and aesthetics in Greek architecture. They often appear in temples and religious buildings, with the most famous ones being those of the Erechtheion Temple on the Acropolis of Athens. Their presence in decoration adds a touch of beauty and grace to their function as supporting elements. Caryatids have inspired numerous architects and artists and have persisted in ancient, Renaissance, and neoclassical art, enduring to this day.
