Abstract
This paper reports on how I created a 3D-printed portrait of the mathematician David Hilbert using the sixth iterate of Hilbert’s space-filling curve. I render the portrait by varying the thickness of sequential segments of Hilbert’s curve according to the grayscale pixel values of a well-known photo of him.
