One of the first who plunged into the study of symmetry properties and its application in art was the Dutch graphic artist Maurits Cornelis Escher.
Escher is known for his conceptual lithographs, wood, and metal engravings, in which he masterfully illustrated the concepts of symmetry, infinity, and psychological perception of complex three-dimensional objects.
Ideas for his paintings Escher took from the exact sciences, from mathematics and geometry.
In 1936, he became interested in mosaics and regularly used it to fill the pictures plane.

For example, on the website of the Canadian University (SFU), drawings and sweeps were proposed to create five regular polyhedra. The images of animals and clowns are used as a repeating mosaic pattern:
