M.C. Escher’s Drawing Hands (1948) is a mind-bending lithograph that explores the paradox of self-creation. The artwork depicts two hands emerging from a flat surface, each sketching the other into existence. With its intricate detail and clever use of shading, Escher blurs the line between art and reality, creating an illusion that defies logic. This piece is a striking example of his fascination with self-reference, recursion, and the interplay between two-dimensional and three-dimensional space, making it one of his most iconic and thought-provoking works.
