Fish 

Here we see a lithograph by M.C. Escher titled "Fish", in which brightly coloured fish are organised within a tessellated plane. The composition consists of rows of stylized fish that interlock seamlessly, creating a pattern that fills the entire space without gaps or overlaps. Escher masterfully uses colour to define distinct regions within the work. The fish, rendered in hues of orange, blue, grey, and black, create a visually engaging mosaic. This careful use of colour adds depth and dimension, enhancing the sense of movement and rhythm across the surface. The structure of interlocking forms invites us to consider the interplay between figure and ground. The tessellation exemplifies mathematical precision. The visual structure destabilizes our perception of order and chaos. Escher prompts us to explore the nature of reality. His enduring legacy challenges us to question our assumptions about the world.
