Escher, M. C.
Poster, Expositie van Grafisch werk van M.C. Escher.
Zaandijk, Het Weefhuis, 1968. Broadsheet (60.0 x 43.0 cm). Printed in black and red.
A large, vintage poster, for an exposition of the graphic art by the Dutch artist Maurits Cornelis Escher (1898-1972). The exhibition was in the town of Zaandijk, near Amsterdam, from 18 May to 9 June 1968. Published during Escher's lifetime, this poster design, therefore, most probably personally approved by him. Het Weefhuis (weaving mill) was a gallery between 1960 and 1974, and again since 2004. In 1968, Escher had already become world famous, but his work was still shown in little-known regional Dutch galleries. The poster shows Escher's Three Worlds (Bool 405). Small, weak fold at bottom right, otherwise a fine copy. Rare, especially in this very good state with nice strong impression.
