Aka Mauk Escher. Famous Dutch artist M.C. Escher (1898-1972) is known for his repeating patterns of interlocking motifs, tessellations of the Euclidean and the hyperbolic plane and his drawing representing impossible figures, such as his waterfall and his Belvedere. Several type designers created fonts based on these geometric contradictions and curiosities, which a I gathered on this page. The art deco lettering on some of his posters inspired P22 Escher (1998, Denis Kegler). Pic. Wiki page. |
