Escher’s words:

       “This impossible triangle is fitted three times into the picture. Falling water keeps a millwheel in motion and subsequently flows along a sloping channel between two towers, zigzag- ging down to the point where the waterfall begins again.

The miller simply needs to add a bucketful of water from time to time, in order to compensate for loss through evaporation . . . The towers are equally high, and yet the left is one story higher than the other. The polyhedrons on their top have no special significance. I have put them there simply because I like them so much: to the left three intersecting cubes, to the right three octahedrons.”

This work is in museum quality condition and is pencil signed and numbered by Escher.
