Perhaps you’ve heard about the Texas police officer who saw the face of the Virgin Mary in a lemon slice. If you haven’t heard about the story or seen the pictures, click here to learn more.
I’ve been holding onto a photo for a while which I believe, if you look at it just right, looks like another familiar biblical figure. Take a look and see if you see what I see. Of course, what I also see is the power of the Gestalt principle of “closure” – our tendency to complete incomplete images and to see patterns where they do – and often do not – exist. What do you think? Click on the images to see a larger version of each.
Here’s a close up of the same image:
In case you’re having trouble seeing it, here’s the same image with an outline around the robed figure:

September 25, 2007Good Mr. Britt:
After viewing the Photos, I came to the Conclusion that there is a Figure of a Woman in a Robe. At first. It looks like a hard-wood floor, then after your photo with the highlighted “Robe” area, I saw the Figure. Wow, my Mind Really did find a Pattern, and My Perception Definitely Changed After Viewing the Photo awhile….
