Taken from a College freshman dorm room wall (adjacent to Bob Marley &/or mandala tie dye print).

On a more serious note, his work & Ansel Adam's photography prints were a table of my adolescent years.

The museum in The Hague is well worth a visit if you're ever in the area.

Escher did it without getting the camera in the frame. Get on his level.

He didn't even have to use an Escher Sketch.

There is no door to the room.

Nah. The door wasn't drawn. The door would be in front of the man.

You can see all around the ball is nothing. No door.

[–] ursakhiin@beehaw.org 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

The subject is the ball. What is behind the ball was left out.

[–] hfiwg@reddthat.com 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

From the reflection you can actually recreate what is behind the ball using this website.

That may work in real life, but this is a hand drawn image.

The levels of distortion around the edges of Eschers drawing don't match what is shown in your example.

He's facing it.
