EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Zollner illusion, a visual phenomenon that plays tricks on our perception of parallel lines. The image features a series of straight lines intersected by another set of shorter lines inclined at an angle. As a result, the parallel lines appear to slant in the direction in which the angled lines are falling. To enhance this intriguing illusion, one can tilt the lower edge of the page upwards. This adjustment intensifies the effect and further deceives our eyes. The photograph originates from The Strand Magazine, published in 1897 during England's vibrant 19th century. The black and white composition adds to its timeless appeal, allowing us to appreciate this optical deception without distraction. It serves as a reminder that even simple geometric patterns can play tricks on our minds and challenge our understanding of depth and perspective. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of how easily our senses can be fooled by clever manipulations of line and angle. It is a testament to both human curiosity and vulnerability when it comes to visual perception. This remarkable piece from Ken Welsh's collection captures not only an artistic representation but also invites contemplation about how we perceive reality itself.
