Description
Long before the first computer-generated 3-D images, M.C. Escher was a master of the third dimension. Titled after the famous lithograph, this book stresses the magic spell Escher's work casts on those who see it. Ernst lends his mathematician's mind to the questions of why & how Escher created his marvelous 3-D pictures & how the various images interrelate. Biographical info & illus.
