A particularly refined entry in this series, this large-format work presents ISHISHI's pure architectural labyrinth in a slightly larger sheet format with exceptional detail. Interlocking spiral staircases, arches, doorways, towers, and organic curvilinear forms create the characteristic Escher-like impossible spatial network. The signature on this work is notably more elaborate than on other lots: alongside the "ISHISHI" name, the artist has added a stylized monogram or personal glyph in brown/gold pencil, suggesting an additional layer of authentication or artistic identity. The cool palette of blues, teals, and warm beiges/tans is among the most harmonious in the series.<br>
<br>
Signed lower right with name and monogram. The additional monogram symbol and the slightly larger format make this a distinguished entry. Estimated value range: $100 to $450.<br>
