Escher’s “Drawing Hands”If you’re not familiar with 20th century part-surrealist, part math-geek artist M. C. Escher, you owe it to yourself to at least read his Wikipedia entry or go to his official site here.  You may be familiar with his most famous drawing called “Drawing Hands” (seen at left).

Many other of his drawing are worth looking at but I’d like to draw your attention to one rather amazing Lego construction of one of his drawings of ‘impossible constructions’.

I will show you the original drawing and the Lego construction below. If you want to see it in more detail and read about how it was constructed, vist creator Andrew Lipson’s site here.
