Options:

a. an example of one point perspective.

b. a flat surface on which he added shading and shadow to create realism. c. a picture in which its lines were not perpendicular to one another, but rather randomly located.

d. the illusion of multiple point, never ending perspective.

Answer:

d. the illusion of multiple point, never ending perspective.

Step-by-step explanation:

From 1940, Escher worked with the idea of creating infinity in finite space. Going beyond perspective and creating infinite space in the two-dimensional role of paper, as we can see in the engraving.

Escher continued to create works of surrealist landscapes such as Up and Down - 1947 (Up and Down), Drawing Hands - 1948 (Drawing Hands), Gravity - 1952 (Gravity), Relativity - 1953 (Relativity), Print Gallery - 1956 ( Print Gallery) and Ascending and Descending - 1960 (Ascending and Descending).
