예술엠디님! 문의할 게 있어욥!

에셔의 도록을 한 권 사려고 하는데 다음 중 뭐가 좋을까요?

외국서적은 미리보기가 안되니 가늠할 수가 없네요. 아마존 미리보기도 신통치 않고;;

그래서 염치 무릅쓰고, 혹시나 하여 엠디님께 여쭤봅니다.

선택의 기준이라 한다면 '그림이 큼지막하게, 많이 실린 것'

1번과 2번은 사이즈는 비슷하나 2번 도서 (250 illustrations )가 페이지 수가 더 많습니다.
3번 도서는 사이즈는 1,2번 보다 더 크나 페이지수가 적습니다.
2번 도서가 그림이 가장 많이 들어 있는 도서입니다.
The Graphic Work : M. C. Escher (Hardcover, 영어) 
http://foreign.aladin.co.kr/shop/wproduct.aspx?ISBN=3836503182
Physical Info: 1.78 cms H x 30.78 cms L x 24.84 cms W (1.08 kgs) 76 PAGES

M.C. Escher was born in 1898 in Leeuwarden (Netherlands). He received his first drawing lessons during secondary school from F.W. van der Haagen, who also taught him the block printing, thus fostering Escher's innate graphic talents. From 1912 to 1922 he studied at the School of Architecture and Ornamental Design in Haarlem, where he was instructed in graphic techniques by S. Jessurun de Mesquita. 
Escher is not a surrealist drawing us into his dream world, but an architect of perfectly impossible worlds who presents the structurally unthinkable as though it were a law of nature. The resulting dimensional and perspectival illusions bring us into confrontation with the limitations of our sensory perception.

"A woman once rang me up and said, 'Mr. Escher, I am absolutely crazy about your work. In your print Reptiles you have given such a striking illustration of reincarnation.' I replied, 'Madame, if that's the way you see it, so be it, '" An engagingly sly comment by the renowned Dutch graphic artist Maurits Cornelis Escher (1898-1972)--the complex ambiguities of whose work leave hasty or single-minded interpretations far behind. Long before the first computer-generated 3-D images were thrilling the public, Escher was a master of the third dimension. His lithograph "Magic Mirror" dates as far back as 1946. In taking that title for this book, mathematician Bruno Ernst is stressing the magic spell Escher's work invariably casts on those who see it. Ernst visited Escher every week for a year, systematically talking through his entire oeuvre with him. Their discussions resulted in a friendship that gave Ernst intimate access to the life and conceptual world of Escher. Ernst's account was meticulously scrutinized and made accurate by the artist himself. Escher's work refuses to be pigeonholed. Scientific, psychological, or aesthetic criteria alone cannot do it justice. The questions remain. Why did he create the pictures? How did he construct them? What preliminary studies were necessary before he could arrive at the final version? And how are the various images Escher created interrelated? This book, complete with biographical data, 250 illustrations, and explications of mathematical problems, offers answers to these and many other questions, and is an authentic source text of the first order.
