Sky and Water print by M.C Escher set in a black and silver frame.
Dimensions: 50cm X 50cm
First printed in 1938, the basis of this print is a regular division of the plane consisting of birds and fish. In this central layer the pictorial elements are equal: birds and fish are alternately foreground or background, depending on whether the eye concentrates on light or dark elements. The birds take on an increasing three-dimensionality in the upward direction, and the fish, in the downward direction. But as the fish progress upward and the birds downward they gradually lose their shapes to become a uniform background of sky and water, respectively.
