  1. The Lark Ascending

    The Lark Ascending is a work by the English people English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams , inspired by George Meredith s 122 line poem of the same name about the skylark . The work was written in two versions violin and piano , written in 1914 and violin and orchestra , written in 1920. The orchestral version is the one that is almost always heard now. It is one of the most popular pieces in the Classical repertoire among British listeners. Vaughan Williams sketched the work while watching troop ships cross the English Channel at the outbreak of the World War I First World War . A small boy observed him making the sketches and, thinking he was jotting down a secret code, informed a police officer, who subsequently arrested the composer.

  1. Ascending and Descending

    Artwork image file Ascending and Descending.jpg image size 275px title Ascending and Descending artist M. C. Escher year 1960 type Lithography lithograph height 35.5 width 28.5 Italic title Ascending and Descending is a Lithography lithograph print by the Netherlands Dutch artist M. C. Escher which was first printed in March 1960. The original print measures 14 x 11 1 4 . The lithograph depicts a large building roofed by a never ending staircase . Two lines of identically dressed men appear on the staircase, one line ascending whilst the other descends. Two figures sit apart from the people on the endless staircase one in a secluded courtyard, the other on a lower set of stairs. While most two dimensional artists use relative proportions to create an illusion of depth, Escher here and elsewhere uses conflicting proportions to create the visual paradox. Ascending and Descending was influenced by, and is an artistic implementation of, the Penrose stairs , an impossible object Lionel Penrose had first published his concept in the February, 1958 issue of the British Journal of Psychology . Escher developed the theme further in his print Waterfall M. C. Escher Waterfall , which appeared in 1961. The two concentric processions on the stairs use enough people to emphasise the lack of vertical rise and fall. In addition, the shortness of the tunics worn by the people makes it clear that some are stepping up and some are stepping down. The structure is embedded in human activity. By showing an unaccountable ritual of what Escher calls an unknown sect, Escher has added an air of mystery to the people who ascend and descend the stairs. Therefore, the stairs themselves tend to become incorporated into that mysterious appearance. There are free people and Escher said of these recalcitrant individuals refuse, for the time being, to take part in the exercise of treading the stairs. They have ... 0 8109 6720 0. M. C.
