William Blanchard came across this classic version of a Young Lady or an Old Hag Illusion, and thought of my site immediately. Glad he did! I'm not positive, but maybe this illusion was already posted on Mighty Illusions in the past, if you find it in our archives, be sure to let me know. I saw it many times, but probably forgot to publish it online. As you see, first thing you see on the photo below, is the old couple. If you look the picture more closely, you will see that the old couple's spirit is still alive, and that they are happy and still in love. They magically transform to their young versions, when they sang, played guitar and enjoyed their life. The picture is great because, it has meaning and you can think of a hundred related stories and metaphors just by looking at them.
what ? no mention of the golden goblet between them ? i couldn't be the only person seeing that.

I don't think the second one looks young or old in particular. They're just dressed differently and are further away.

Wow. If you look above the "vase" between there faces, you see what looks like a crown!

Um...it is not a young couple you see...(last time I checked, women don't have sideburns...atleast they are not supposed to) but rather a Turkish looking man (with an empty bottle beside him (though Muslims were not suppose to drink).
As well, it is also apparent that it is a variation of the old silhoetter versus chalis (vase) illusion as well.

Wow there really is a golden goblet. I think that this illusion is great! At first I could only see the old couple but when I looked closer I saw the young couple too.

I have to say, I'm a little creeped out by the old people.

This is good, but I think I'd be pretty scared if I saw someone who looked like that!

Anon,
I think you wil find it is either a young couple or a man and another one who has undergone constructive chest surgery.
Side burns, you haven't seen my mother in Law ! LOL
This is a fantastic site. It's nice to see you take the time to enrich other people's lives. Oh, and Christopher (#5) - you spelled "retarded" wrong! Hmm... Keep up the good work! Tim.
ok this is sweet but I mean come on! like someone else said: that bottle SO doesn't look like an earing and like I said: the end of the mans guitar looks like there is half a lemon coming out of his nose! Also, they look DEAD! There eyes are like half closed!
Anyway it's still pretty good! Keep getting these!
Yankees Lover!

ppl..the golden goblet is not the point. The goblet illusion is a very old and classic illusion, whereas this is a modern version with about 5 ways to look at it.

Am I the only one who notices the two people sitting in the middle are both guys? There is a woman but she's way in the background...2 young men do not equal a loving old couple....

The bottle next to the young lady doesn't look like an earing

i think its really clever! Go u Vurdlak!! the old woman certainly is wrinkly!
I think all these people who try and get #1 are retarted. and baller77 I wanna see you do better
I like how the chalice formed by the empty space between them is a repeated pattern on the Old Man's shirt...Very nice.
Now this is the kind of illusions i like.
