An Italian Landscape Through the Eyes of a Master: M.C. Escher's Castel Mola and Mount Etna
In December 1932, Maurits Cornelis Escher journeyed through the rugged landscapes of Sicily, capturing the architectural precision and natural drama that would define his later mathematical masterpieces. This Pack of 10 Post Cards features Castel Mola and Mount Etna, Sicily, a work that beautifully illustrates Escher’s early fascination with perspective and structural harmony. This fine art print depicts the ancient village of Castelmola perched high above Taormina, with the majestic, smoking peak of Mount Etna looming in the background.
