Figure 2
[Photograph 97 on page 142] A mosaic from the Hmamzada Darb-i Imam in Isfahan, Iran. Half of a ten-sided star occupies the lower center, and parts of three others at the apex and two sides; the rest of the pattern consists of kites, pentagons and non-convex octagons. Each of these large regions in turn consists of smaller simple tiles. Reproduced with permission from the Wade Archive at https://patterninislamicart.com/. Copyright David Wade.
