Baluster: a column, often in classical style, supporting the hand rail to stairs or, in the case of the photograph above, to the eaves of Andreas Palladios Basilica in the Piazza Vicenza Italy. A series of such columns is known as a Balustrade
Here is the man himself. The statue of Palladio in Piazza Palladio Vicenza (his home town). The Basilica behind was one of Palladio's first commissions. Vicenza is a remarkable place with an unbelievable classical heritage. I visited in February 2005 during my honeymoon and I managed to get a couple of architectural shots before being reigned in by my wife Charlotte!
It seems that romance won the day as you might tell with this image I took in the afternoon sunlight.
