A pattern on the cupola of the room Abencerrajes at the Alhambra (XIV-XV century, Granada, Spain): if we consider only the geometry of the drawing and ignore the colouring, the scheme of symmetry is of type 632. If we distinguish only between white and coloured tiles, we have a scheme of type 333.

The image belongs to the sections...:
