Wow! I never knew this existed. Amazing to see Escher at work. As we move further in to the age of computers, this manual process seems ever more remarkable.

Just left the Houston exhibit over 400 pieces of his work on display absolutely amazing exhibit this piece of the snakes I wish was there I don't remember this one.
So he’s carving a rectangle. Then he suddenly has a complex, organic edge, scroll-saw cut of a mathematically perfect three piece of snakes. MC Escher is clearly a wizard.

It has become wild seeing so many Escher sold, with great write ups on the piece and him, relying on the term "signed, attributed to" for things very clearly NOT ever real to him. This piece commonly with the (frequent 164 of 250) number. Also called a linotype and as we see in the film it is wood. Signature also placed most anyplace especially on white border (bottom) of sheet with head on top. (And as seen on known originals, he signed this by the snake head at bottom of print.) Many also advertise and do this with the snake head at the top - instead of bottom - making this all a pretty clear showing of a fake/forgery.
That's the last work of esher, the synthesis of a life, interlocking geometries, natural shape, escape to infinity, cyclic time... He passed away shortly after
Did not know there were any videos of this man working. Truly amazing.
WOW! Escher is my All Time Favorite Artist...his work really moves and speaks to me!!

Only a genius could do something like that. Escher was a genius.
Oh MY GOD! I'm drooling!!!! I had no idea!!
This had sound and was longer on a documentary I saw on VHS in Art School 20 years ago. Ive been looking for the whole film!
