Is this a pattern?
A detail in the decoration of a minaret in Uzgen (Kirghistan).
If the decorations between the squares were alike, we would get a pattern (of type 2*22, *×, or …, according to the the chosen decoration). Instead, the decorations are different and are not repeated with regularity, so there's no transformation that sends the figure in itself.
