Inspired by the ubiquitous ironwork window railings of Paris, with a nod to the Catholic culture of its secular society, this image emerged from the idea of Euler spirals reflected in an Euler spiral.

An Euler spiral’s curvature changes in proportion to the distance along the curve. It converges on a point but never gets there. As a mathematician by training and a pedant by inclination, I have to admit the Euler spirals here are limited and approximate.
