" Reptiles" by M. C. Escher
M. C. Escher
Reptiles, 1943
Lithograph
"Amidst all kinds of objects, a drawing book lies open, and the drawing on view is a mosaic of reptilian figures in three contrasting shades. Evidently one of them has tired of lying flat and rigid amongst his fellows, so he outs one plastic-looking leg over the edge of the book, wrenches himself free and launches out into real life."
