The optical illusion we present to you today was created by a German magician and artist named Hilbert Schwarz. At the end of the 18th century, his only source of income was creating optical illusions, which he published in magazines and newspapers of the time.
Unfortunately, Hilbert Schwarz is not widely known, but his works can still be found in ancient libraries and the mysterious images themselves have become part of the public domain.
We present one of Hilbert Schwarz’s popular illusions. Let’s look at the picture. What do you see? Yes, an empty room, a table, two chairs and a lamp. There are cards on the table, indicating that someone has decided to play a game.
Now, think about it: even if we assume that the players left the table (to smoke, take a break, etc.), why would they leave their cards face up? When they return, they will see each other’s cards.
In fact, the room was not empty, there were two people in it – a man and a woman. Can you find these people in the picture?
