Symmetry Watercolor 106 Bird 1959

"Symmetry Watercolor 106 Bird" (1959) is a woodcut by the Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher. Escher, known for his exploration of impossible spaces and tessellations, uses a simple design to create a complex and visually captivating pattern. The artwork features an endless repetition of birds, forming a mesmerizing pattern of green and white. The image captures Escher's fascination with symmetry and illusion, playing with the viewers' perception of space and form. The interlocking birds appear to be simultaneously moving in opposite directions, creating a sense of both motion and stasis, a hallmark of Escher's artistic style.
