The painting is dominated by a depiction of a stemmed silver fruit bowl containing pears. A deliberately created optical illusion of the human face occupies the same space as the dish; the fruits suggest wavy hair, the dish's bowl becomes the forehead, the stem of the dish serves as the bridge of the nose, and the dish's foot doubles as the chin.
An optical illusion of relative size perception. The two black circles are exactly the same size; however, the one on the left seems larger. Disappearing Model: A trompe-l'œil body painting by Joanne Gair. The dress: An optical illusion resulting from the brain's attempt to discount coloured tinting from daylight and other sources. [1]
working on the design of a new picture, which featured a flight of stairs which only ever ascended or descended, depending on how you saw it. [The stairs] form a closed, circular construction, rather like a snake biting its own tail. And yet they can be drawn in correct perspective: each step higher (or lower) than the previous one.
This result suggests that the bottom-up cues that drive the flicking response are distinct from the top-down cues that drive the Hollow-Face illusion.

This image will be perceived as one complete image from only a single viewpoint in space, rather than the reality of two separate halves of an object, creating an optical illusion. Street artists often use tricks of ...
A 3D-printed version of the Reutersvärd Triangle illusion. M.C. Escher's lithograph Waterfall (1961) depicts a watercourse that flows in a zigzag along the long sides of two elongated Penrose triangles, so that it ends up two stories higher than it began. The resulting waterfall, forming the short sides of both triangles, drives a water wheel.
Yoon first began gaining worldwide recognition for her art in 2016 when her illusion face paintings went viral on social media. [10] [11] Several of her early face paintings involved painting on her face and hands and overlapping both to create the illusion that they are one object. Other early works created a 'dizzying' effect in the viewer ...
