Mighty Optical Illusions

Surreal Paintings by Pieter Brueghel the Elder

This two amazing paintings were submitted by my girlfriend few minutes ago :) It made me real happy to see her interest in my optical illusions project. Both of these were painted by Pieter Brueghel (1525-69), usually known as Pieter Brueghel the Elder. He used that addition to his name, to distinguish himself from his elder son. You’ll often find his name spelled as Bruegel (he spelled it himself like that from 1559 onwards) or even Breugel or Breughel. If you look at both paintings long enough, you will notice many, strange hidden details. Don’t miss the second pictured titled “Big Fishes Eat Little Fishes” that is inside this post. It kinda reminded me of M&M scary movie poster. If you like surreal illusions glaze your eyes on submissions from Paul Parkus, David Dory, Steve Kreuscher… and more inside Escher Inspired category.
