About this work
The Archimedean solids are polyhedra with regular polygons for sides and edges of equal length. For example, the faces of this surface are six squares and thirty-two equilateral triangles. It is called a snub cube. The model is made from plastic. A. Harry Wheeler assigned this model the number 16, and referred to it as Archimedean solid XI. The model is undated and has no signature.
