On the Other Hand … – 4

From John Graham:
The most famous example of “handing” is Leonardo da Vinci’s double-helix stairway which King Francis 1 constructed at the Chateau of Chambord.  It was said that the Queen could go up one stair without seeing his mistress coming down the other.  Very important to get the handing right.
