Snakes is a woodcut print by the Dutch artist M. C. Escher first printed in July 1969.It depicts a disc made up of interlocking circles that grow progressively smaller towards the center and towards the edge. There are three snakes laced through the edge of the disc.Snakes has rotational symmetry of order 3 comprising a single wedge-shaped image repeated three times in a circle. This means that it was printed from three blocks that were rotated on a pin to make three impressions each.
