5.0 out of 5 stars Solves the Alhambra mystery!, January 27, 2001
This review is from: Classical Tesselations and Three-Manifolds (Universitext) (Paperback)
In 1944, Edith Muller claimed that all the 17 wallpaper groups were found in Alhambra. Unfortunately, her paper only contained 11 of them. Grunbaum and Shephard found two more, and finally in 1987 Perez-Gomez found the missing 4.

The book includes pictures of all the 17 wallpaper groups from Alhambra.

It should however be pointed out that in his review of the paper by Perez-Gomez in Mathematical Reviews, Coxeter disputes the p3m1 example.
