Droste Effect & Recursion


The Droste effect was named after an old Dutch brand of cocoa that featured on its container a nurse holding the tin she was pictured on, forming a recursive image. It was made popular by M C Escher's 'Print Gallery' in 1956, and has been used in many forms of artwork and advertising ever since.
