A rosette
The drawing of one of the fifteen rosettes in the horizontal row lying in the middle of the façade of S. Maria Novella, in Florence.
You can see an other one; or you can see a photo of the same rosette.
The symmetry type of this rosette is interesting: in the small central triangle we see a dihedral symmetry type D3, while in the exterior part we have a symmetry type D5; as GCD(5,3)=1, on the whole we have a symmetry type D1.
