Mosaic II 1957

"Mosaic II," a 1957 lithograph by Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher, is a masterful example of his signature tessellation style. Escher, known for his mind-bending explorations of perspective and impossible spaces, presents an intricate pattern of interwoven animals, human figures, and objects, all seamlessly merging into a single, unified image. This work demonstrates the artist's ability to manipulate the viewer's perception of reality by employing intricate geometric patterns, creating a visual illusion that is both captivating and thought-provoking.
