Accepted Answer

M.C. Escher drew impossible architecture — staircases that only go up, water that flows eternally upward — using mathematical principles intuitively. He was no formal mathematician; he had studied decorative art and walked around daily with a sketchbook.

M.C. Escher tekende onmogelijke architectuur — trappen die alleen omhoog gaan, water dat eeuwig naar boven stroomt — door wiskundige principes intuïtief te gebruiken. Hij was geen formele wiskundige; hij studeerde decoratieve kunst en liep dagelijks rond met een schetsboek.
