SB3D (Tour/Triptych)

The "Torus Triptych" is an example of commercial art, being new illustrations from the second edition of the author's book Beyond the Third Dimension. The various images in each of the three parts indicate the "water-level curves" as a torus is gradually submerged into a liquid, giving quite different collections of curves depending on the way the torus is positioned with respect to a horizontal plane.
