More: a set of diagrams on different types of printing; a drawing of a cliff in Nonza, Corsica, from 1928; Belvedere, 1958, one of Escher's impossible buildings, which I liked particularly because of the historical dress; and a selfie at the selfie wall meant to emulate Escher's Hand With Reflecting Sphere self-portrait.

Last week, I walked through with my mother. I liked everything, but there were a few faves! A portrait of Jetta, Escher's wife, from 1925; the lute from XXIV Emblemata, 1931 (translation of the text: "Do you pine for happiness and muted song? The chords of your youth will resound for centuries."); and the Second and Sixth Days of Creation, 1925 and 1926, respectively.
