Masterpieces In 3‑D M.C. Escher And The Art Of Illusion by Katherine Gleeson is a beautifully illustrated picture book that explores the mind‑bending work of the Dutch graphic artist. Published in 2005 by Barnes & Noble, the hardcover volume blends art history, optical illusion and mathematics for curious readers.

The book is richly illustrated with Escher’s iconic tessellations, impossible constructions and visual puzzles, making it a perfect resource for art lovers, students and anyone fascinated by visual trickery. Its non‑fiction narrative is accessible to ages 9‑12, young adults and adults alike, offering clear explanations of Escher’s techniques and artistic legacy.

Condition is good overall with a few minor imperfections: light scuffing on the cover, a 1.5 cm tear at the bottom edge of the spine, light foxing on the front two pages and the back inner cover, and a single page with a small scuff mark. The pages are otherwise clean, tidy and free of writing or dog‑ears, and the binding remains tight.

This copy comes from a smoke‑free home and is ready to become a striking addition to any collection of art, puzzles or visual‑culture books.
