Im Leben von Maurits Cornelis Escher
Das ganze Leben29 July 1961
Ernst Gombrich on Escher in the “Saturday Evening Post”
On 29 July 1961 the influential weekly “The Saturday Evening Post” printed a long article by Ernst Gombrich on Escher’s work.
1962–1964
Operations and cancelled lectures
In 1962 Escher underwent an urgent operation and spent a long time in hospital — a planned series of lectures in North America was cancelled and he stopped working for a time. In 1964 he went to Canada again to see his son and give lectures, but almost at once he had to have an operation in Toronto and returned to Europe; his health then declined, and by the late 1960s he needed constant care.
1965
The Hilversum cultural prize
In 1965 Escher received the Hilversum art prize; the same year Caroline MacGillavry published her book “Symmetry Aspects of M. C. Escher’s Periodic Drawings”.
