Initial T c. 1932

"Initial T" is a woodcut print created by Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher in 1932. This early work by Escher, known for his later complex optical illusions, showcases his mastery of detail and pattern. The artwork's simple composition, depicting a stylized "T" formed by intertwined branches, a fire, and two crossed brooms, reflects Escher's early exploration of graphic design and geometric patterns. This woodcut is a prime example of Escher's signature style, showcasing his meticulous craftsmanship and his ability to convey depth and movement through line and pattern.
