Delft 1939

"Delft" is a 1939 lithograph by Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher, known for his exploration of impossible spaces and optical illusions. The artwork depicts a street scene in Delft, Netherlands, with buildings, cobblestones, and figures rendered in Escher's signature black and white style. The perspective is distorted, creating a sense of depth and ambiguity, as if the ground is tilting and the buildings are defying gravity. This work is a prime example of Escher's fascination with visual paradoxes and the interplay of geometry and perception.
