The Magic Mirror Of M c Escher By Bruno Ernst hardcover

About the Book

Long before the first computer-generated 3-D images， M.C. Escher was a master of the third dimension. His impossible geometry and illusions， bordering between the scientific and psychological， are an homage to the possibilities of the human mind. This updated edition of a true classic presents the artists key graphic works and detailed explanations of each mathematical problem.

Book Synopsis

A woman once rang me up and said， Mr. Escher， I am absolutely crazy about your work. In your print Reptiles， you have given such a striking illustration of reincarnation. I replied， Madame， if thats the way you see it， so be it. A fittingly sly comment from renowned Dutch graphic artist Maurits Cornelis Escher (1898-1972)， whose complex and ambiguous drawings continue to leave hasty interpretations far behind.
