This produces a loop which in theory could go on forever, but in practice only continues as far as the image's ...
The Hollow-Face illusion is an optical illusion in which the perception of a concave mask of a face appears as a normal convex face.

The missing square puzzle is an optical illusion used in mathematics classes to help students reason about geometrical figures; or rather to teach them not to reason using figures, but to use only textual descriptions and the axioms of geometry. It depicts two arrangements made of similar shapes in slightly different configurations.
