About Three Worlds

The artwork titled “Three Worlds” was created by M.C. Escher in 1955 and belongs to the Op Art movement. This particular piece falls under the landscape genre.

“Three Worlds” intricately depicts three distinct layers of visual reality, reflected in and above a body of water. The surface of the water displays floating leaves, capturing the delicate details of their forms. Below the surface, the viewer can observe the fish swimming, rendered with meticulous attention to texture and shading. The reflection on the water mirrors the tree branches above, creating a captivating interplay of light and shadow. The composition harmoniously blends these three aspects, demonstrating Escher’s masterful technique and imaginative vision.
