Stars is a wood engraving print created by the Dutch artist M. C. Escher in 1948, depicting two chameleons in a polyhedral cage floating through space. The compound of three octahedra used for the central cage in Stars had been studied before in mathematics, and Escher likely learned of it from the book Vielecke und Vielflache by Max Brückner. Escher used similar compound polyhedral forms in several other works, including Crystal (1947), Study for Stars (1948), Double Planetoid (1949), and Waterfall (1961).

  • 《群星》(Stars)是莫里茲·柯尼利斯·艾雪在1948年創作的一個木版畫作品,主要描繪了兩隻變色龍被關在三複合正八面體形狀的籠子裡漂浮於太空中。 雖然在這之前已有許多數學家研究過其作品中關有變色龍之籠子的形狀——三複合正八面體的性質,但艾雪很可能是獨立地研究並發現此種形狀,且並未參考那些研究。艾雪在他的其他幾個作品中也用了類似的複合多面體來創作,例如《水晶》(Crystal,1947)、《研究星星》(Study of Stars,1948),《雙星》(Double Planetoid,1949)和(1961)等。 (zh)

  • Stelle è una xilografia di testa dell'incisore e grafico olandese Maurits Cornelis Escher, ultimata nel 1948. Considerata tra le opere di maggior rilievo dell'artista grazie al profondo connubio tra filosofia e geometria, Stelle, come spesso accade con i lavori di Escher, è emblema dell'ambiguità dell'universo e della ricerca di una trama di perfezione e ordine sottostante un mondo apparentemente caotico. Nell'incisione sono rappresentati due camaleonti in una gabbia poliedrica che fluttua nello spazio. (it)
  • «Звёзды» — гравюра на дереве, созданная нидерландским художником Маурицем Корнелисом Эшером в 1948 году, изображающая двух хамелеонов в многогранной клетке, плавающей в пространстве. Хотя соединение трёх октаэдров, используемое для центральной клетки в «Звёздах», было изучено ранее в математике, оно, скорее всего, было придумано Эшером для этой работы без изучения этих исследований. Художник использовал подобные составные многогранные формы в нескольких других работах, включая «Кристалл» (1947), «Этюд для звёзд» (1948), «Двойной планетоид» (1949) и «Водопад» (1961). (ru)
