The Pop-Up Book of M.C. Escher

The Pop-Up Book of M.C. Escher

In the images in this book, M. C. Escher (Dutch, 1898-1972) shows us the limitless, the infinite, and the impossible -- continuous staircases that rise and yet end at their beginning points, two hands reaching out of a page to draw each other. The pop-up format adds even more intrigue, bringing the designs to life. Each pop-up is accompanied by a quotation from Escher's writings. Includes eight pop-up renderings of Escher drawings that feature optical illusions, including: Ascending and Descending, Drawing Hands, Puddle, Hand with Reflecting Sphere, Mobius Strip II, Regular Division of the Plane V, RelativityTower of Babel, and Metamorphosis III.
