My pal Rick sent me this simple photo of impossible triangles formation. This impossible construction sure looks Escher inspired, do you agree? I actually needed few minutes to figure it out. You presume it’s two triangles trapped in an impossible way, but actually it’s only one continuous line if you follow it closely. What was [...]

What you see here is an art poster, a satire on false perspective by William Hogarth. It was submitted to me by one of our fans, Thomas Welton. It’s a classic spot the object illusion, where Escher’s influence is more than obvious. Your assignment, this time is to spot as many irregularities you can see, [...]

I believe we’ve seen similar optical illusions on this site before. However it is really awesome, if you know how to look at it! Here is what I want you to do. First cover the upper half of the picture with your palm, and you’ll automatically assume that the window corner of this building is [...]

This impossible scaffolding sent in by Maria Percascu really looks weird. Can you solve the mystery behind this Escher-inspired construction? We didn’t have that much Escher art over the last few weeks, but this one really redeems that. Immediately I remembered our impossible dice triangle, and figured picture this real couldn’t be photoshopped. Then I [...]

Peter Blair found this one yesterday on the Sun’s Viral. As you see it’s “pretty impossible” object constructed in real life. We already explained how these strange triangles work, especially good explanation can be seen through this rotational animation, but somehow I can’t find the connecting line in the dice below? If we could only [...]

Hello, it’s Colin the co-editor again! I’m baaacckkkkk! This time we have some cool art with many different illusions implemented inside these photos. The art pieces you see, are made by Jacek Yerka, who uses pastels and canvas to make these cool paintings. Mostly I like them because they look nice, but some of them [...]

These cartoon-ish illusions seem to get more popular as days go bye. The newest submission was done by Ryan Oksenhorn. I really enjoyed myself observing this funny looking dude trying to escape his Escher prison. If you notice, again we have reference to M.C. Escher’s Ascending Castle. From my experience, Escher is the first thing [...]

Just found this album cover from a band called Time Requiem. It is even called “Optical Illusion”. I believe you’ll have no trouble spotting the illusions in this image. The fiery guy in the middle is juggling four impossible objects. What is even better, we covered all of them in the past. First one is [...]
