Peter Bukowinski thought I might like his submission, and he was right. The motive in this picture has already been seen, but it is never boring to see new versions of classic illusion. If you look closely, you’ll notice something paradoxic in the window below. Not only does it give you something to think, but also shows an awesome fictional passage to another world. This is illusion isn’t the most complex around, but I really like the image as a whole. Enjoy and please share your thoughts…

    hurts my head… is the window facing left or right?

    Since the top and bottom are facing different directions it makes it seem like their are two diffferent windows.

    Will you people get a grip?,I mean sure it is a great optical illusion, but I’ve seen better ones,and I hope that I’m not ofending anyone,because this illusion made me think for about 30 seconds untill I got it.But for real,don’t get excited about the balls.And I hope to add this site to my myspace page.

    If you look at the top of the window it opens in, and if you look at the bottom of the sill it opens out!

    that is so cool and it is obvious from the second u look at it. It’s not one of those illusions where u have to really look at it and in the end u don’t get it!

    this impossible figure is made by istvan orosz,
    great hungarian painter.
    it is part of the exhibition at EXPLORA Science Center in Frankfurt Germany

    In actuality, you are seeing it from underneath it, because if you were above it, in order for it to be conceivably realistic the doors would have to be opening outward, and since you can see them over the frame they are opening inward, therefore you must be below it. Not trying to troll, still a marvelous painting by a very talented artist.

    It’s a much better version of something I tried as a student. And I appreciate that it’s in a size sufficient to exhibit the rich detail.
