拍品专文

"What a fantastic experience it is on a freighter like this, when waking up at night in your own cabin you are suddenly able to account for that contract with your immovable bed on land, in which you're used to lying still and horizontally, while your bed at sea is continuously rolling around that horizontality."

- M.C. Escher, letter to his son Arthur, 28 May 1955
