Fool the eye
31 January 2026
There has always been great interest worldwide in M. C. Escher's work. Articles about him and his art often speak of 'optical illusions’ and his work is almost automatically associated with that term. Understandable, even though the relationship between optical illusions and Escher's work differs from how optical illusions are generally explained.
