Answer:

The Greek order that has an entablature with a three-panel architrave and a decorated frieze is the Ionic order.

Explanation:

The Ionic order is one of the three main styles of Classical Greek architecture - the other two being the Doric and the Corinthian. The Ionic order appeared during the mid 6th-century BC in Ionia, which was located in the southern part of Asia Minor. The Greek started to practice this order in mainland around the 5th-century BC, especially in the Archaic Period (750-480 BC).

Main characteristics of the Ionic order:

The Ionic columns always have a base - they are slender columns
The Ionic columns are fluted - with a number of 24 hollow flutes in the shaft
The entablature which rests on the columns has three parts:

an architrave - it is plain and divided into two or three bands
a frieze - it rests on the architrave and it is really decorated and sculptural - the motifs are narrative and in bas-relief style
a cornice - built with dentils (spaced ends), a crown and a cyma - to support the roof

How did the Roman Catholic Church react to the loss of followers to Protestant movements?

Andrews [41]

The Protestant Reformation in Europe in the first half of the 16th century seriously challenged the Roman Catholic Church. Before Martin Luther publicized his “95 Theses” attacking church corruption in 1517, virtually all Europeans belonged to the Catholic Church, but just 20 years later much of the continent belonged to the Reformed, or Protestant, church. Luther’s critique of the existing church had become a new denomination in its own right. The Catholic Church was forced to respond, and did so in several different ways during a period known as the Counter-Reformation.

What impact did George Eastman’s new film-developing processes have on photography?

Tatiana [17]

After his education in the public schools of Rochester, New York, Eastman worked briefly for an insurance company and a bank. In 1880 he perfected a process of making dry plates for photography and organized the Eastman Dry Plate and Film Company for their manufacture. The first Kodak (a name he coined) camera was placed on the market in 1888. It was a simple handheld box camera containing a 100-exposure roll of film that used paper negatives. Consumers sent the entire camera back to the manufacturer for developing, printing, and reloading when the film was used up; the company’s slogan was “You press the button, we do the rest.” In 1889 Eastman introduced roll film on a transparent base, which has remained the standard for film. In 1892 he reorganized the business as the Eastman Kodak Company. Eight years later he introduced the Brownie camera, which was intended for use by children and sold for one dollar. By 1927 Eastman Kodak had a virtual monopoly of the photographic industry in the United States, and it has continued to be one of the largest American companies in its field.
