On Daraga Church Solomonic Columns

edit

Hi Carlojoseph14. Please consider editing the part stating that the church of Daraga is " is [also] the only existing church in the country that has Solomonic columns". The Tuguegarao Cathedral and nearby Ermita de San Jacinto also has such columns, only that they differ in design. Thank you! --JJ Carpio (talk) 15:20, 23 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Edited the line to It is one of the few churches in the country that has four spiral columns known as Solomonic columns or salomónicas. The cited source states that:
It is the only surviving church in the country with salomónica columns–the hallmark of the baroque in the colonial churches of Spanish-America..
Is it different from solomonic columns? --Carlojoseph14 (talk) 15:44, 23 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the edit. I'm no architect but it seems that Solomonic columns and salomónicas might refer to the same Solomonic or Barley-sugar column. Checked Google Translate for the word Salomónica and it says that it is the Spanish word for Solomonic. The book Philippine Church Facades described the Tuguegarao cathedral as having Solomonic columns as well. Perhaps, the column being referred to in your source is the Churrigueresque style of the column, which technically speaking is found in the Daraga Church.
Yup, Salomonica redirects to solomonic columns. Salomón is just the Spanish version of the biblical name Solomon, just like Moses is Moisés and Adam and Eve is Adán and Eva. :) Even the old bibles in Filipino and Tagalog masses still call the son of David as Salomón with a very Tagalog pronunciation.--RioHondo (talk) 16:19, 23 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
