M.C. Escher’s Three Worlds (1955) is a captivating lithograph that explores different layers of reality within a single image. The artwork depicts a pond’s surface reflecting the bare branches of trees (the first world), while a fish swims beneath the water (the second world), and fallen leaves float on the surface (the third world). Through this composition, Escher masterfully plays with perspective, reflection, and transparency, creating a poetic and thought-provoking meditation on perception and the coexistence of multiple realities.
