![]() In conclusion all artworks demonstrate how 2D may demonstrate impossible 3D situations that at first glance seem real in the eye of the beholder. ![]() Moreover, the pillars at the front support the backside of the top floor while the pillars at the back support the front side. For example, from the viewer’s perspective, all the pillars on the first floor are the same size on both the front and back. Figure 14, “Belvedere” is a lithograph print showing a plausible-looking building that turns out to be impossible. This complexity is found in, for example, Escher's Lizard. Figure 13, “Ascending and Descending”, demonstrates a double paradox where the figures on the outer edge appear to ascend endlessly, while the figures on the inner edge endlessly descend. From the mathematical perspective, these constructs are often quite rigid as in the above examples, but Escher discovered more complex tessellations that bring visual interest and aesthetic beauty. Figure 12, “Waterfall”, is based on the Impossible Triangle, which is fitted three times over into the picture. And finally the artworks 12-14 by M.C.Escher, Dutch graphic artist who creates amazing 3D impossible situations. Jos is known for depictions of impossible objects in a photorealistic style. Figures 9-11 is additional impossible 3D artworks of the Flemish-Belgian painter Jos De Mey where his face was added to the image in Figure 11. ![]() By a deep observation, it becomes clear how these artworks are impossible in 3D. Figure 7, “Impossible Chess Set”, and Figure 8, “Gateway to the Fourth Dimension”, were painted by Sandro Del Prete, a Swiss Illusionist. Other impossible objects in 3D of Paulsen are presented in Figures 4-6. It is made of three straight beams of square cross-section, which meet pair wise at right angles at the vertices of the triangle they form. The triangle, impossible at 3D, appears in 2D to be a solid object. The impossible triangle of MC Escher Triangle Escher 3D CAD Model Library GrabCAD
