About the Item
Signed, titled and numbered, edition of 35. The illusions and reflections in Sietens prints often bring M.C. Escher to mind, but his prints have a distinctive feel all their own. Reflection of the real world on a metallic sphere is one of Sietins’ most frequently used motifs. The reality does not always correspond to the reflection. Where it is that reality ends and illusion begins?
