Nocturnal Rome 1934

"Nocturnal Rome" (1934) is a graphic artwork by the Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher, known for his exploration of mathematical concepts and impossible structures. The work depicts a nighttime cityscape, likely inspired by Rome, with a grid overlay that creates a sense of depth and distortion. The grid, a recurring motif in Escher's works, adds a layer of complexity and visual interest, while also subtly playing with perspective.
