That which are called "Penrose Tiles" are patterns named after Roger Penrose, an English mathematician and a physicist.

These tiles exhibit repeating patterns that display at every scale and can be thought of fractals. This remarkable property is called self-similarity where the same patterns occur at larger and larger scales. Thus, the tiling can be obtained through "inflation" (or "deflation") and any finite patch from the tiling occurs infinitely many times. (Wikipedia)
Is this a Penrose? Hmmm....
