Three Intersecting Planes 1954

"Three Intersecting Planes" is a 1954 lithograph by Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher. Escher is well-known for his exploration of mathematical concepts through his art. This piece exemplifies his interest in perspective, tessellations, and impossible spaces. Three dimensional structures are layered in a way that challenges our perception of depth and reality. The visual intrigue of this piece is heightened by the use of black and white, emphasizing the geometric patterns and optical illusions. Escher's work, particularly "Three Intersecting Planes," continues to fascinate audiences with its playful manipulation of spatial relationships.
