AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Offset lithography after the 1946 work “Eye” by Maurits Cornelis Escher, one of the influential graphic artists of the 20th century.

The work is among Escher's best-known compositions. It shows a meticulously detailed human eye, in whose pupil a skull is reflected — a striking meditation on perception, transience, and illusion.

Published by the M.C. Escher Company, Baarn (Netherlands).

Printed on matte paper (180 g/m²) with clean, high-contrast reproduction of the fine line structure and Escher's characteristic attention to detail.

The print stands out with a high-contrast black-and-white printing, with deep blacks and clean white margins.

Condition

Overall in good to very good condition.
There are some storage- or handling-related creases and slight dents in the white border area, especially at the corners and along the right edge (see photos).
The actual subject is not affected and presents itself clean and high-contrast.

The photographs are part of the description.
