    The document provides instructions for analyzing M.C. Escher's drawings in terms of perceptual concepts from Gestalt principles and depth perception. Students are asked to analyze different drawings in groups, identify which perceptual concept is utilized in each image, and describe how Escher used that concept. The concepts that could be analyzed include figure-ground, proximity, similarity, continuity, closure, relative size, texture gradient, interposition/overlap, linear perspective, relative height, and the images provided are Tower of Babel, Sky and Water I, Snakes, Bond of Union, Three Worlds, Hand with Reflecting Sphere, and Still Life and Street.

    Directions:​ You have been given a selection of drawings from M.C. Escher. In
    your groups analyze and describe where each of the following perception concepts
    occurs on a separate piece of paper. Identify which concept you are utilizing, what
    image it appears in, and how M.C. Escher has used that concept. Each of the
    concepts appears in the images, and some have more than one correct answer.
