Optical Illusion, Blossom and Decay


Captioned: "In this ambiguous illustration, blossom and decay, two perceptual hypotheses of equal validity can be formed. The illustration is perceived either as a skull or two people seated in front of an arched gateway. The two interpretations rival each other and are hard to perceive simultaneously." An optical illusion is a phenomena where one seems to see something that doesn't exist or with another perspective. It is also called visual illusion and is categorized by visually apparent images. An optical illusion is basically a visually misleading image interpreted by the brain inaccurately. No artist credited, undated.
