This is an enjoyable book with all of the usual suspects in visual illusions and mathematical optics such as Escher and Dali. It also has a very good collection of newer artists that you may not have ever heard of. The reproductions are high quality and the sizes of most of the images are good.

from mschaefer

A beautiful collection of art based on optical illusions. Includes more contemporary than classical work (though Escher is covered). Not all the artists have been able to go beyond Escher or find an independent path, but most of the artwork in this book is quite stunning.
