Illusions
You will probably have come across examples of pictographic ambiguity
before, where a single drawing has more than one 'image' contained within
it, depending on how you look at it. This picture, My wife and my
mother-in-law, or as others have called it, the young and the old woman
is a particularly good example, and was published in 1915 by the cartoonist W.E.
Hill. Even experienced psychologists can sometimes find this hard. This was one of the
harder ones for me to see. ( until I got the clues )

The young girl's necklace is the old woman's mouth, and the young girl's nose is a lump
on the old woman's nose.Under the young girl's necklace is the old woman's chin.
Now I bet you see her !
