Question
This artist’s early training under graphic artist Samuel Jessurun de Mesquita (“samuel heh-soor-uhn day meh-skeet-ah”) was put to use in the four colored woodblock prints he used for making Double Planetoid. This artist’s final print, Snakes, contains the rotational symmetry common in his late period. This artist, seated in his Roman studio, looks directly into the title object in his 1935 painting Hand with Reflecting Sphere. Tiles from the (*) Alhambra inspired this artist to create works such as Verbum that feature fish or birds with tessellated patterns. A lithograph by this artist that exemplifies Douglas Hofstadter’s notion of the “strange loop” depicts two hands drawing each other. For 10 points, name this Dutch artist known for his “impossible constructions,” such as seemingly endless staircases. ■END■
