M.C. Escher (1898-1972), (after) - Hand with Reflecting Sphere

- M.C. Escher (after), authorized offset print on smooth paper (170gsm approx.). 2000s - Plate signed. - Copyright The M.C. Escher Company - Baam, The Netherlands. - Size: 55 x 65 cm. - Condition: excellent. Never framed, never exposed. - M.C. Escher (1898-1972) was a dutch graphic artist renowned for his intricate and mathematically inspired artworks. His work often features impossible constructions, explorations of infinity, and optical illusions. Escher's prints and drawings challenge the boundaries of perception and perspective, making him a unique figure in the art world. Escher's art is celebrated for its precision and imaginative complexity. He is particularly known for his use of tessellation, interlocking repetitive patterns, and transformations. His work seamlessly blends art and mathematics, captivating both art enthusiasts and scientists. Escher's pieces have become highly valuable and sought after at auctions. For instance, his lithograph "Metamorphosis II" has fetched prices upwards of $500,000, reflecting his enduring influence and popularity. "Hand with Reflecting Sphere" is one of Escher's most famous works. This lithograph features a self-portrait of the artist, reflected in a spherical mirror held in his hand. The sphere distorts the surrounding room, bending the space and showcasing Escher's interest in perspective and reflection. The piece exemplifies Escher's ability to blend art with mathematical precision, creating a visually striking and thought-provoking image.
