Hand With Reflecting Sphere


Sent by Dorothy, a partner in WiP. This one shows a litograph work of M.C. Escher (Dutch, 1898 - 1972) titled Hand With Reflecting Sphere.

This is from Wikipedia : Maurits Cornelis Escher (17 June 1898 – 27 March 1972), usually referred to as M.C. Escher (English pronunciation: /ˈɛʃər/, Dutch: [ˈmʌʊ̯rɪts kɔrˈneːlɪs ˈɛʃər], was a Dutch graphic artist. He is known for his often mathematically inspired woodcuts, lithographs, and mezzotints. These feature impossible constructions, explorations of infinity, architecture, and tessellations.
