The artwork, titled “Flor de Pascua – Convention,” was created by M.C. Escher in 1921. It belongs to the art movement known as Expressionism and falls within the genre of illustration. This particular piece is part of a series called “Flor de Pascua.”
The artwork depicts a monochromatic illustration of a child standing in profile. The child is rendered in stark black and white, with bold contrasts and sharp lines. The background features a series of vertical lines, creating a sense of depth and focus on the central figure. The expression on the child’s face appears contemplative or melancholic. The simplicity of the forms and the use of strong, contrasting tones reflect the expressive qualities that characterize Escher’s early work within the Expressionist movement.
