Description:

This collectible phone card features an artistic design inspired by the work of M.C. Escher, specifically his lithograph "Ascending and Descending." The artwork depicts an endless staircase with figures walking up and down in a continuous loop, creating an optical illusion that challenges perceptions of gravity and perspective. The architectural elements are drawn with precise, detailed sketches that emphasize the impossible structure of the building. The grayscale color scheme highlights the intricate line work and shading characteristic of Escher’s style.

The card includes printed text that reads "50 Unit M.C. Escher Ascending & Descending (Building)" alongside the logo and name "E.T.Tel Communications," identifying the issuing entity. The text "Artistic, sketches, sketchings, drawings, artworks, architecture, buildings" appears, underscoring the artistic and architectural themes displayed in the imagery. The sharp angles and repeating patterns of the stairways create a visually engaging and thought-provoking composition that is true to Escher’s iconic approach to visual paradoxes.

This card is intended for use as a collectible phone card, and the visual presentation centers entirely on the artistic and architectural qualities of the famous Escher lithograph. The card’s design and text make it a clear homage to the legacy of M.C. Escher’s influential and mathematically inspired artworks.
