Staircase Illusion

Another cool work by Escher! This amazing Staircase Illusion in a way reminds me of classic computer game called Discworld. Am not sure why, it just does!

    I'm not sure if this is Escher... He used mostly black&white for this kind of pictures. But he has made this picture: http://www.punkycorner.it/arte/escher/09.jpg

    This is definitely not an Escher. Escher's primarily used printmaking methods to produces his pieces, and the sort of halftoning required to achieve an image such as this through printmaking methods would have been absolutely ridiculous. This is definitely an Escher-inspired piece.

    It's like a Rubix cube. The stairs at the bottom go up, and there is another one after that, leading up too. Ignore the fact that the walls are in different angles and places (If you don't the illousion will look like something COMPLETELY different!) And ignore the fact that the stairs are on the top and bottom of each staircase. I haven't figuered out why there is a wall between the stairs near the first staircase. That's more focused on on the wall facing upwards, which is really a floor. If you're trying to be normal, the floor facing upwards would mean that the stair case next to that floor wouldn't (and couldn't) exist. Spooky!

    So totally agree about Discworld! I really see what you mean! (The books are better than the computer game - I got stuck!)

    This illusion isn't a work of M.C Escher, althoiugh it is done in his style. It reminds me of that seen in Labyrinth where that girl is trying to get her brother from David Bowie, but she can't figure out how to make the staircases hold her or something. Good movie, but the comment board isn't about good movies =^.^= -_-()
