Content:
A large range of symmetries in art is presented through clear and aesthetically outstanding examples of historical ornaments. Compendious comments illustrate the selected photographic material by addressing the interested and specialist reader alike. Contents:Introduction, Fundamental categories, The convenient start: Plane groups of symmetry, Intertwined patterns: Layer groups of symmetry, Two-colored periodic ornamentation, Polychromatic patterns, Beyond 2D groups: Hypersymmetry, superstructures, two symmetries in one pattern, the "order-disorder" patterns, homothety and similarity, inversion and nonlinear patterns, Quasiperiodi, c patternsFractals and fractal, characterStyle and symmetry - symmetry and style, Refer.ces, Index
