Probably most of you know about Maurits Cornelis Escher also known as MC Escher. Sujoy first told me about him and showed few pictures. He is on of the greatest Mathematician Artists. Most of his work is mathematically inspired Woodcut, Lithograph and Mezzotint. One of his arts is widely used to represent recursion pictorially. Few of his art based on fractal, relativity, perspective, metamorphosis and so on. He sketches few landscapes with irregular perspective that are impossible to visualize. Most of his art work is inspired by Mathematics and very strict on Mathematical perspective. He writes couple of papers on Mathematical Approach to Art work Creation. Most of his art work can be easily depict as Visualization of Mathematics. He is more Mathematician than an Artist. I have compiled few of his art work here.
