II 132f
Optical Illusion/M.C. Escher/Cresswell: problem: if a deception contains an apparent contradiction, there is no set of possible worlds, in which it would be implemented.
Solution: Cut the image apart.
Escher: Problem: to give a semantics for the sentence: In the picture there is at least one monk moving up and at the same time one moving downward.
Wrong: "at least one monk up and at least a monk down ...".
Cresswell: there will be sets of worlds in which everyone goes up and some in which everyone goes down. - That seems correct.
>Possible worlds, >Propositions/Cresswell.
