Tessellation involves using copies of a shape, usually a polygon, to cover a plane surface without gaps or overlaps. The study of plane surfaces and regular shapes are part of geometry and, therefore, of mathematics.

What is a Escher Tessellation?

Escher tessellations are not true mathematical tessellations. A mathematical tessellation uses multiple copies of the sameshape (or a small number of shapes) to cover an infinite plane without gaps or overlaps.Escher's art covers a finite area, not a plane. Also, his shapes are not exact copies but change gradually across the area covered. Some examples are:the base of Reptiles,Sky and wtaerDay and nightMetamorphosis IVerbum.
