It’s been said here already, but I’ve also loved his work for almost forty years and have never seen an actual video of the genius M.C. Esher. I did not even know one existed. Thank you for sharing.

Known his work for MANY years, (many decades, actually) but never before heard the sound of his voice, or seen him in motion, at work in the studio. Thank you for your research and for posting this.

The man, the Myth, the Legend. M C Escher. My first and the largest inspiration I've ever had yet to date.

The drawing of the mirror sphere is absolutely incredible. The one with the hand holding the sphere.. insane

Brilliant to see and hear this artistic genius at work and talking. Have loved his work since I discovered it in the early seventies but have never come across anything on film about him and with him in it. Also have started dabbling in wood carving and long been an admirer of the superb craftsmanship of Japanese wood block print artists and carvers. Seeing Escher actually carving his designs (into wood or lino) was inspirational. What a talent. To see his works emerge from his print making is magic. Makes you proud to be a human seeing his work. Thank you, thank you, thank you. CP

Ik had hem nog niet horen spreken. Leuk. Al 35 jaar een liefhebber van zijn werk.

Found a book about Escher in high school, and was fascinated. His work is mind-bending! 😵‍💫

As a teen I had a print of Escher's work "Relativity" on my bedroom wall. Some of his art looked like fractals, before the word "fractals" was even a thing. Genius, ya know...what else can you call it? I did not know there were any recorded interviews with him until now. Thanks for this!

Who knows, in another life Escher could have been a Moorish architect...

What amazes me is how small he actually worked. Look for footage of gallery shows of his work.

Escher looks exactly the way I imagined him. His workroom looks exactly the way I imagined it. He even sounds exactly the way I thought he would! ♥️

Wonderful seeing Mr. Escher striking some of the prints, and actually doing some cutting with the tools. Thank you for sharing this documentary.

I recently attended an Escher exhibit at the Chrysler Museum in Norfolk. It was amazing to say the least. My twelve year old daughter enjoyed it so much she asked to attend once more before the exhibit moved on to another museum.
