Description from the seller
M.C. Escher: “Hand with Sphere”.
Dated and signed on the plate.
Condition: the work is in excellent condition.
Maurits Cornelis Escher's Day and Night (1938) is one of the most recognizable images in the history of 20th-century printmaking, where landscape, mathematics and poetic imagination come together. The structured Dutch polder landscape gradually transforms into a dynamic flight of interlocking birds, shifting from bright daylight to deep nocturnal black in a visual metamorphosis.
Created at a moment when the European avant-garde was redefining perception, this composition resonates with the spatial exploration of the Bauhaus and the optical investigations later associated with Victor Vasarely and Bridget Riley, while its dreamlike logic places Escher in a conceptual dialogue with surrealist masters such as René Magritte, Salvador Dalí and Max Ernst.
Never framed and kept in a dark archival storage between protective acid-free paper.
The photos shown are part of the description,
the listed dimensions shown are for illustration and are not included.
This artwork is carefully and securely packed and shipped in protective acid-free paper.
No shipping to the Canary Islands.
