This escher fractal drawing is called "Fish and Scales" and was completed in 1959.  Here we see the scales of the large fish developing into fish.  The occurs from both sides.

This reminds me of fractals because the big shape (the fish) is made up of many similar, smaller shapes. It is interesting that the class has gone full circle so that we can relate the Escher patterns to fractals.
