Dolphins also known as a Dolphins in Phosphorescent Sea is a woodcut print by the Dutch artist M. C. Escher. This work was first printed in February, 1923. Escher had been fascinated by the glowing outlines of ocean waves breaking at night and this image depicts the outlines made by a school of dolphins swimming and breaching ahead of the bow of a ship. The glow was created by bioluminescent dinoflagellates. (In 1923 the difference between phosphorescence and bioluminescence was not well understood.)

  • «Дельфины» — ксилография нидерландского художника Эшера, также известная под названием «Дельфины в Фосфорецирующем Море» (англ. Dolphins in Phosphorescent Sea). Впервые была напечатана в феврале 1923 года. Эшер был очарован бликами бьющихся в ночи волн и игрой света на поверхности океана. Ксилография изображает силуэты стайки дельфинов, плывущих наперегонки с лодкой, носом разбивающей гладь воды. Свечение было создано используя способность растений группы Протисты испускать свет. (ru)
