Description:

This collectible phone card features a detailed artistic design showcasing one of M.C. Escher’s most iconic images, the “Hand with Reflecting Globe” self-portrait. The illustration depicts a hand holding a reflective globe that captures a full 360-degree view of Escher’s surroundings, including his own figure. The image is rendered with intricate linework and shading, emphasizing the spherical distortion and the interplay of light and shadow in Escher’s drawing style.

The card visually highlights the precision and creativity of Escher’s printmaking and sketching techniques. The globe at the center contains mirrored reflections of the artist, his hand, and the environment, emphasizing symmetry and perspective. The design uses monochromatic tones typical of Escher’s drawings, offering a striking contrast that brings the hand and globe to life.

Printed on the card is the text “M.C. Escher Hand & Globe (Self Portrait),” linking the artwork directly to the renowned Dutch graphic artist. The card also includes the name “E.T.Tel Communications,” identifying the issuing company. The layout pairs the artistic imagery with clear branding, making this card a collector’s item focused on Escher’s distinctive style and contributions to visual art.
