        It’s young lady with a hat facing away and an old lady with a hat facing to the side. Young lady’s ear is old lady’s eye, young lady’s nose is a mole-like bump on old lady’s nose, and so on. Never liked this one personally, the old lady is too much of a stretch for my brain to accept.

      • Easier to show this way,

        One view: young lady. We see her from the back, looking away from the “camera”, her left ear towards us, wearing a necklace

        Other view: old lady. Instead of the left ear, the same point served as the eye, the necklace instead serving as the mouth

          I know you’re not responsible for this:

          But what old lady wears a frill around their chin?

          Conclusion: The young lady is real, the old lady is the illusion.

            And what is the shoulder part of her clothes doing in front of her? Either it’s the young woman or the old wears weird clothes or can twist her neck in a creepy way

            In the old woman version you’re supposed to see it as a ruffled collar and her head as angled down, her chin kind of sitting on the collar

      This take on it is especially weird to me because I initially saw the young face, but as soon as I saw the old one it became impossible to see the “ear” as anything but an eye.

      I can still kinda see the young face but the ear doesn’t compute anymore. it feels wrong.
