Print Gallery by M.C. Escher


This is a surreal image showing more than one perspective of the same thing using the Droste effect (an image appearing within itself in a recursive way).  It is difficult to tell where the man is – Is he inside or part of the picture or is standing outside the picture looking at it?  This image is very cleverly constructed.  I like the way it tricks the eye and how you can get lost in the picture.  The image appears to spiral in on itself which draws the eye to rotate around it while your mind tries to make sense of what you are seeing.
