This woodcut print, created in 1921 by Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher, showcases a lone figure standing on a white plane, illuminated by a striking field of converging lines above. The simplified forms and dramatic use of light and shadow, along with the stark black and white palette, are characteristic of Escher’s early work. The composition suggests an exploration of space and perspective, a hallmark of his later, more complex prints. While not as widely known as his later works, this piece is an important example of Escher’s development as an artist, showcasing his early interest in visual illusions and the manipulation of space.
