Can You Spot the Double Images in This Portrait?

Do you enjoy optical illusions? They are fascinating, aren’t they? I remember when I first came across this particular image. Back then, it was only a physical picture, but now it’s all over the internet and has been seen by millions of people. This optical illusion is quite popular, mostly because it’s quite challenging. It showcases two images simultaneously, but only a few people can actually see it.

Millions of individuals find themselves perplexed by this puzzling image, unable to spot the illusion and wondering what they are missing. The famous picture below has been circulating around the world since 1888. Just to put things into perspective, that was the same year the first phone line was established between Stockholm and Gothenburg, as well as the year the first wax drinking straw was patented.

This postcard was originally created in Germany for an organization called “The Anchor Buggy Company.” Interestingly, it was initially distributed without any mention of the hidden images. However, people eventually started noticing something unusual about the postcard…

The artist behind this intriguing illusion is a British cartoonist named W.E. Hill.

He named this illusion “Young-Girl Old-Woman” and it portrays a younger girl looking away and an older woman looking down. This image was the first of its kind and managed to remain popular over the years, despite competition from newer illusions. The W.E. Hill image has been viewed by millions, and perhaps even billions, of people worldwide!

Take a closer look at the image above and see if you can spot the double image.
