If you also like visual challenges and optical illusions, then you will surely love this one. It is about a game where you need to say how many people are in the museum, and we already say that there are more than you can see at first. But be careful, because only 5% of people got the final result right.

Do paintings count as people?

Those who are smarter may find that the trick is found in the frames of the image below. After all, it is a museum where some people observe the works of art that are on the walls.

As you noticed, these are portraits or self-portraits, so they are all drawings of people. However, for this challenge, we will not be counting the figures in the frames as people. That's because they're just works of art, whereas we're looking for real people, right?

So you will see that there are five people in the picture, who are in the museum hall. However, we already said that this is not the right answer and that, in order to get the result right, you will need to look beyond the obvious.

There is a hidden person!

If there are five people clearly visible in the image that we can easily find, then there are more that are not so obvious. There is a person who is not necessarily in the museum hall, but who is still a person in the image and who enters the count.

However, to find it, you need to think a little more and avoid the most obvious places. In fact, there is a very big clue that there is someone in the image who is hiding from the others.

If you want to recognize it, look at the painting that hangs to the right of the image, right in the corner. So, notice that in the region of the painting's eyes there is an opening, like a kind of frame.

Therefore, the eyes that are in the image are not those of a work of art, but of a real person who observes others. This is the sixth person we were looking for.
