While standing in the alcove with the large medipack, face out over the checkerboard room and take a running jump to grab one of the handholds on the wall to the right. If Lara grabs the lower handhold, jump to the upper one. Climb all the way to the left. Then jump to the left and throw the grapple to snag the metal hook on the wall above. If you can make the wall run and jump back to land on the second column to the left in one smooth sequence (as indicated by the arrows in the screenshot above), more power to you. But I found that maneuver quite tricky using the keyboard controls. The following worked better for me:
While hanging from the cable, extend or retract it if necessary (by holding Interact and pressing the Forward/Back direction keys) so Lara's feet are on the lower of the two long horizontal bands of decorative carving, as shown above.
Wall run back and forth until Lara is swinging as high as possible. Keep running and move the camera as far as possible to the right, toward the wall, so you're looking at Lara almost side-on (as in the screenshot above). When she runs all the way in the other direction, press Left + Jump to make her spring off the wall and land on top of the fluted column to the left.
Alternatively, move the camera behind Lara as she runs back and forth along the wall. Then, when she runs all the way to the left, press Back + Jump to make her jump to the column.
If you're having trouble with this sequence, you might want to try practicing in the safe setting of Croft Manor. These are the exact same moves required to get Artifact #7 in the gym.
