Ger van Oers

Author: Maurits Cornelis Escher (1898-1972)
Title: Hand with Reflecting Sphere (1935)
Size: 65 x 55cm
Copyright: The M.C. Escher Company - Baarn - The Netherlands.
Offset print, made on 180g high-quality matt paper. Displays a vivid and sharp image quality.
Just the right size to frame. Impressive effect when framed.
Shipping in a rigid tube via certified express mail.
It is possible to collect more than one object, from the same auction, in the same shipment.
The piece depicts a hand holding a reflective sphere. In the reflection, most of the room around Escher can be seen, and the hand holding the sphere is revealed to be Escher's.

Self-portraits in reflective, spherical surfaces are common in Escher's work, and this image is the most prominent and famous example. In much of his self-portraiture of this type, Escher is in the act of drawing the sphere, whereas in this image he is seated and gazing into it. On the walls there are several framed pictures, one of which appears to be of an Indonesian shadow puppet.
