The Infinite World of M.C. Escher, Hardback 1984

The Infinite World of M.C. Escher, Hardback 1984

M C Escher (1898-1972) was a Dutch graphic artist renowned internationally for his mathematically inspired woodcuts and lithographs featuring impossible constructions and optical illusions.  Said to have been inspired by the geometric mosaics in the Alhambra, he was also influenced by his years travelling and living in Italy. This volume is primarily a collection of M C Escher\u2019s fantasy artwork, supplemented with an essay on his work by J.L. Locher, then Curator of the Modern Art Department at the Gemeentemuseum in the Hague. Measuring approximately 12\u201D high x 8 3/4\u201D wide x 7/8\u201D thick, this book is a 1984 reprint of an original 1972 publication. It would likely be of particular interest to anyone with an interest in woodcuts, lithographs, 20th century fantasy artwork or the history of art, and would be a fascinating \u2018coffee-table\u2019 book for any artist or collector.
