Description

The Luckiesh pattern is an optical illusion that demonstrates how bounding objects like square can appear distorted in the presence of the radiating lines. The image shows the hollow square superposed upon groups of oblique lines so arranged as to apparently distort the square.
There is a scanned image of original Luckiesh figure, (Luckiesh, M. (1922): Visual Illusions. Their causes, characteristics and applications. New York, NY: Dover. Publications (reprint 1965). This image was redrawn by Jasmina Stevanov in 2011 (vector file and high resolution tiff image are available)
