I Can't Believe My Eyes

Sometimes our eyes see not quite what actually is, and at times even what does not exist at all. It seems that such "tricks" of vision are something exceptional, rare. But this is not true. Under certain conditions, optical illusions... are regular phenomena. Since ancient times, architects and artists have known about the peculiarities of how our eyes work and have played with the perceptions of viewers. To this day, any visual art takes into account and uses visual illusions. Moreover, without illusions, cinema and some directions in painting might not have even appeared at all. This book collects the most interesting and surprising visual "deceptions," explains why and how they arise, and invites readers to create illusions and experiment with them themselves.
