Day & Night Relief Carving
Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


This relief carving is built-up of poplar & black walnut, with overlays of a few other woods. 26” x 15” x 1-1/2” thick
It is based on a 1938 woodcut of M. C. Escher, titled “Day & Night.” showing a flock of contrasting geese forming a tessellation in the upper part and morphing into farm fields below. The left half shows a riverside village in daylight. The right half features a mirror image of the village at night.
Later in 1938 Escher did some similar woodcut tessellations called “Sky & Water I & II” Elsewhere in my Projects are relief carving of those designs. This carving was done with hand tools over six months duration. PCA
