Other articles which are of comparatively recent introduction, but which have had a lasting vogue since their appearance, are the torches and par- ticularly the candelabrum. We find to this day the turned shaft of the candelabra reproduced in every other table leg and grille upright. The fasces 91 DECORATIVE ELEMENTS IN ARCHITECTURE originally carried before the Roman consuls have also lived throughout the centuries and will prob- ably continue to fill a role in future decoration.
The cartouche
..., which can be traced to the sacred oval ornamenting the earliest Egyptian temple, has reappeared under the Greeks and the Romans, and every civilization which followed, found use for it wherever it was found necessary to frame an inscription, or to blazon forth the heraldry of some king or conqueror.
The use of various units assembled together as in the trophies of the Romans demands, of course, arrangement as well as appropriateness. In the assembling of these innumerable objects the artist must apply his sense of balance and proportion and so assemble the elements that compose his "decor" that they will not jar by reason of a con- flict of lines or an incongruous contrast in form.
