Tessellation of Fishes c. 1960

"Tessellation of Fishes" (c. 1960) is a woodcut print by Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher. Escher was known for his exploration of tessellations, a repeating pattern of geometric shapes that fit together without gaps. In this piece, Escher uses the shapes of stylized fish to create a visually captivating and mathematically precise design. The contrasting colors of gold and green add depth to the intricate pattern. Escher's works, like this one, continue to fascinate audiences with their clever use of space and form.
