The artwork, titled “Flor de Pascua – La Pensee” and created by M.C. Escher in 1921, belongs to the Expressionism art movement and falls under the genre of illustration. It is part of the “Flor de Pascua” series.
The artwork presents a striking and stylized depiction of a flower, which appears to merge floral elements with facial features. The use of lines and shading creates a sense of depth and intricacy, emphasizing both the organic form of the flower and the human-like visage embedded within it. The overall black and white composition adds to the artwork’s bold and contemplative mood, characteristic of Escher’s distinctive style.
