Description
The Queen's House, Greenwich, is a former royal residence built between 1616 and 1619 in Greenwich, then a few miles downriver from London, and now a district of the city. Its architect was Inigo Jones, for whom it was a crucial early commission, for Anne of Denmark, the queen of King James I of England. The Tulip Stairs are the first centrally unsupported helical stairs constructed in England. The stairs are supported by a combination of support by cantilever from the walls and each tread resting on the one below.

Nicely done! I don't know how much of the perfectly graduated tones were you and how much was natural lighting, but it is buttery smooth. Nice contrast across the image.
