    I love technical and line drawings as well as tessellations so needless to say I have an M.C. Escher book on my office desk.


    Another take...

    Very cool! My parents have panoramic drawings of NYC 1798 and Old-World Prague that would be right at home on that blog.

    I have these really cool books of line drawings of castles, cathedrals etc buried somewhere; I need to dig them up again.

    Couldn't remember for the life of me who the illustrator was of the above-mentioned books.

    David Macaulay is the guy.
