Can anyone else see the fish photo and think only of Godel Escher Bach (a book you read 10% of then skipped through the photos of)?

I thought of Escher since tesselation is what he's famous for beyond impossible shapes (metamorphosis II [0] is among my favorite pieces of art).

I definitely read less then 50% of GEB too, but I think I skipped to the Achilles and the Tortoise dialogs rather than the pictures :)

Never read the book, but Escher is one of my favorite artists. So any number of his fish and birds immediately come to mind: https://www.escherinhetpaleis.nl/en/about-escher/escher-toda...
