(Shawn Taylor) Escher covered a variety of subjects throughout his life. His early love of portraits, Roman and Italian landscapes, and of nature eventually gave way to regular division of the plane. Over 150 colorful and recognizable works testify to Escher's ingenuity and vision. He managed to capture the notion of hyperbolic space on a fixed two-dimensional plane as well as translating the principles of regular division onto a number of three-dimensional objects such as spheres, columns, and cubes. A number of his prints combine both two and three-dimensional images with startling effect. His art continues to spark wonder and amaze millions of people all over the world. In his work we recognize his keen observation of the world around us and the expressions of his own fantasies. M.C. Escher shows us that reality is wondrous, comprehensible, and fascinating.
