About the Artwork
A Table Scene Becomes a Skull
Two seated figures share a table beneath a golden circle in this Sarrazin skull illusion poster. With a little distance, their heads read as the dark sockets of a larger face, and the bottle between them helps form the bridge of the nose. The image rewards both a glance and a closer look.
Artwork and design
Warm highlights trace the table and the circle around the figures. The surrounding darkness joins those separate details into a single skull shape. Pale lettering below the picture is deliberately simple, leaving the illusion to occupy the upper field.
About this advertisement
An auction record identifies Sarrazin as a French magician and describes the skull image as a variation on Charles Allan Gilbert’s optical illusion All Is Vanity. The picture demonstrates the kind of visual switch that a stage magician could use as part of an act.
Rooms and interiors
Put it at eye level where visitors can approach from several steps away, such as beside a game table or along the entrance to a media room. Warm directional light will bring out the golden ring.
