Discover the Mathematical Masterpieces of M.C. Escher 🎨

M. C. Escher, born 6.17.1898, was a Dutch graphic artist known worldwide for his mathematically inspired woodcuts, lithographs, and mezzotints that feature impossible constructions, exploration of infinity, architecture, and tessellations of the euclidean and hyperbolic plane. <br /><br />"By keenly confronting the enigmas that surround us and by considering and analyzing the observations that I have made, I have ended up in the domain of mathematics. Although I am absolutely without training in the exact sciences, I often seem to have more in common with mathematicians than I do with my fellow artists."<br /><br /> - M.C. Escher<br /><br />"A long time ago I chanced upon this domain of regular division of the plane in one of my wanderings; however on the other side I landed in a wilderness. I came to the open gate of mathematics. Sometimes I think I have covered the whole area and then I suddenly discover a new path and experience fresh delights."<br /><br /> - M. C. Escher
