The attraction of many Escher prints begins with the fact that they suggest things that do not actually exist and sometimes, cannot possibly exist. Let's take "Day and Night" for example; the square gray fields in the foreground gain in definition of shape and contrast and become an equal pattern of black birds and white birds in the upper center. These birds then develop into three-dimensional creatures flying off into the real world of day and night.

Escher has a pop-culture appeal, in which students seem to respond to the eerie, and mystical qualities in his art with instant enthusiasm. His images are based on visual paradoxes and laws of symmetry where the worlds of fine art and science converge. Many mathematicians still use Escher prints as examples in their lectures.

Escher prints have the ability to leave you perplexed. A perfect example of this can be found in the popular "Relativity" which presents three worlds where three gravitatational fields manage to work next to each other. As a man comes up from the cellar he sets his right foot on the floor which turns into a wall for the seated man to his left, while to his right is another man descending the stairs. It is meant to be three worlds merging into one.

"Waterfall" is a good example for what looks normal at first glance. Like many Escher prints what seems to be normal to the eye at first may need a hard look to notice that things are actually amiss. If you look closely at this print you will notice that some of the columns that support the water trough are placed in impossible positions. While flowing down the stepped trough, the water can actually be seen heading uphill. There is a misconception that the towers are as equally high as one another, but the one on the left is actually a story higher than the one on the right. Escher loved to confuse and stimulate the viewer taking them on a journey of sorts with his art.

His visits to the Alhambra in Spain changed his life. He was intrigued by the Moorish ornamentations that filled the entire space on the walls. This began the foundation for his works after 1937, for which he is most famous. These tessellations involve repeated patterns and regular divisions of the plane, impossible constructions, and infinite space. Right up until in death in 1972 he continued to create great works of art. Through his art, Escher was able to bridge the gap between the realms of art and science. Some of his most popular tessellations include; "Metamorphosis", "Day and Night", and "Reptiles."
