Serpentine shape
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Serpentine refers to the curved shape of an object or design which resembles the letter s, a sine wave or a snake; the latter is the derivation of the term. This shape is often used while riding horses as a riding figure, to help train the animal and help improve the rider.
Thomas Jefferson designed serpentine brick walls for the University of Virginia. [1] [2]
