Image description

Deceptive Lines. In this illusion the lines BC appear to be much longer than the lines AB, although in reality AB and BC are exactly the same length. Although difficult to believe, this can be proved by actual measurement. A circle with centre at B will touch points AACC. Illustration for one of a set of cigarette cards on the subject of Optical Illusions, published by Ogden's, early 20th century.
