Description
| Meticulously calculated architectural structures and geometric figures. The world of Escher, the master of "trompe l'oeil" that deceives the eye. 31 masterpieces are included as postcards. What is most fascinating about Escher? the mysterious and philosophical elegance of his works. The source of this elegance is the mathematical structure that lies in the background, mathematical structures lying in the background, or the visual effects of optical illusions. A typical example of works that utilize visual illusions is a trompe l'oeil painting called "impossible three-dimensional painting. The front-back relationship of the pillars is reversed between the floor and the ceiling in [Monomi no Tower] (1958), which returns to the starting point when the viewer continues to ascend. Ascending and Descending" (1960), which uses an infinite staircase as a motif, belongs to this category. He did not just want to incorporate strange and interesting trompe l'oeil pictures, The more one looks at these works, the more one is drawn into them, and the more one thinks about them.

Sugiyama Atsuyoshi (Graduate School of Advanced Mathematical Sciences, Meiji University) - Excerpt from the Preface
視覚を欺く「トロンプ・ルイユ」の巨匠、エッシャーの世界。
31点の名作をポストカードとして収録。エッシャーの何よりの魅力は、
その作品が醸し出す不思議で哲学的な気品であろう。その気品の源泉は、
背景に横たわる数学的構造であったり、錯視を利用した視覚的効果であったりする。
錯視による視覚効果を利用した作品群の代表は、不可能立体の絵と呼ばれるだまし絵を素材にしたものだろう。
柱の前後関係が床と天井で逆転している「物見の塔」（1958）、上り続けると出発点に戻る
無限階段をモチーフに用いた「上昇と下降」（1960）などがこれに属す。
ただ不思議で面白いだまし絵を取り入れたいというだけにとどまらず、
細部にもだまし絵を密ませるなど丁寧な作風により、眺めれば眺めるほど、引き込まれ考えさせられる作品となっている。
