Sun and Moon 1948

"Sun and Moon" is a 1948 woodcut by Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher, known for his tessellations and impossible structures. The artwork features a complex interplay of black and white birds, with the sun and moon forming the central focus. Escher's masterful use of perspective creates a mesmerizing visual effect, where the birds appear to seamlessly transform into each other. This piece is a prime example of Escher's fascination with duality, light and dark, and the endless possibilities of visual illusion.
