Description

Pictured in "Natural Structure in the Man-Made Environment". The ring is an example in which each module is identical to each module, resulting in a circular structure. The structure has rotational, but not reflection symmetry. It is used in Denmark in beer fermentation, and was sent to the Loeb by his friend, the Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher.
