In my view Escher is a very particular kind of artist. He has found a niche for himself, which, I think, has not been an important influence on mainstream art.

Math was important for his art.
he became famous at the age of 25
He wrote The Regular Division of the Plane published in 1958. It was a description on how he created his tessellations and was illustrated. There was also a book called Escher on Escher which were the notes of a lecture series he was going to do before he became ill.
One of his sons, Arthur Escher, became a geologist and was Professor at the University of Lausanne (Switzerland). Another son, George Escher, was an aeronautical engineer at Dehavilland Aircraft in Canada and a mathematician.

How does Nicolas Copernicus became interested in science?
Maurits Escher
It was a visit to Grenada and the Alhambra Palace that sparked his interest. The Moorish building and its art had a profound affect on Escher. His fascination with geometric shapes introduced him to the concepts of regular division which eventually lead to his use of tessellations.
He was a graphic artist. But he studied a great deal of geometry and was interested in dividing planes up into parts.
M.C. Escher's parents were George Arnold Escher, a civil engineer, and Sarah Gleichman. Escher was born Maurits Cornelis Escher on June 17, 1898 in Leeuwarden, Netherlands.
