Anyone recognizes the painting on the left? It is one of the most famous paintings called “The Scream“. When I was a young kid, I thought it was painted by Van Gogh, but I was terribly wrong. Do you know the name of the original artist? Well, I received this variation in my mailbox yesterday. It was sent by Joey Kuna including explanation: “I found this on one of my friend’s myspace and just thought it was cool the way it seems to move just from inverting color. It’s a small image but feel free to use it if you want.”
The animation gives you impression of clouds floating, faces growing and backgrounds changing – In fact it’s just a simple composition of just a few frames, and inverted colors. We’ve seen many similar illusions in the past on this site. I’m still on the island of Korcula, so please be patient in your wait for new illusions.

I just have to say that I removed your gadget because of this illusion. Put simply, the strobing and contrast hurts eyes. Not just mine, just eyes in general. Shouldn’t you have a seizure warning or something of the sort?
can someone stop that thing from endless looping? loop twice is enough! i really makes me dizzy. lol.
good eye illusion by the way. =]
Well, to answere your question of who is the original painter of “the scream”. It is a norweigan painter by the name Edvard Munch.
Artist was Edvard Munch.
Great illusion
Edward munch
whoa… the links here are really getting mad…

“it seems to move just from inverting color.”
This is not true. If you slow the frames, there is movement interspersed with the color inversion
Just wanted you to know that I had to delete your widget because it was just too annoying to have the darn thing blinking on my screen for days.
There has been NO posts for ages. ARRGHHHHHH!!!
The artist’s name for the orignial work was Edvard Munch.
ok every one we know who the artist is! now can we have a new illusion
ENOUGH ALREADY!!! ANOTHER DAY OF LOOKING AT THIS AND I’LL BE REMOVING THE DAILY ILLUSION FROM MY GOOGLE PAGE.
I’m new – please be kind.
How do I open these optical illusions?
TIA
Very interesting! Makes me dizzy!
We need new posts on at least an every other day frequency. If you take a job do it. Be responsible.
Quit making excuses.
not an illusion, ive checked it with adobe flash, its a moving loop
well I like it..illusion or not..
I like illusions anyhow..
the only thing is that this one really make my eyes hurt and dizzy.
new blog for me..
You could give somebody an epileptic seizure with that image!… I hope everybody is ok \\ is their any warnings on site of something like dat?
thats trippy as hell
So change the bloody thing already
how long you going to leave it up ?
This used to be amusing now its just absurd!
yea jesse is right its just a picture of scream and you just added a frame by frame you 2 votes say that.
Not an illusion. Extract the Gif to see. But still, it fools a lot of people.
Yes, jesse’s is right.
First I thought that this was edited, not only by inverting colors in different parts of the image at a time. But then I read the article and believed in what you wrote…
I found it so unelievable and cool, that I wanted to see the diferent images used to produce this animation and realized, that my first thought was right, that you can’t reach such a movement by just inverting the colors…
J’m a bit disappointed…
Still, I like this page ;-)
when i look at the face, it creeps me out >.<
The illusion is not the fact that it's moving at all, but that it seems to keep on going.
This is for all the obnoxious smart asses on here…SHUT THE HELL UP!!..who cares how smart u r…
ok love this site but theres something I recomend for this tipe of images dont put them on the front page cause hepileptic people like me can see this image just because of the flashing I dont know I just say it so someone dosent have a problem
Ok im saying it again love the site
