M.C. Escher (1898-1972) Escher was a twentieth century Dutch graphic artist recognized for his unique interpretation of repeating patterns or tessellations, impossible architecture and skills in lithography and woodcutting. Though he lacked formal training in math or science, he was greatly appreciated by mathematicians, scientists and crystallographers for his intuitive capacity for transforming geometric shapes into a workable and adaptable scheme. He became fascinated by the regular Division of the Plane when he visited Alhambra, a fourteenth century Moorish castle in Granada, Spain in 1922. He would later extend his passion from paper to carved beech wood spheres.
