At first glance, it’s just an ordinary picture—a woman talking on the phone. But then something feels… off.
A detail. A shape. Then another. And another. Suddenly, doubt creeps in: are you sure you’ve seen everything there is to see?
This kind of visual challenge, as fun as it is unexpected, sparks our curiosity while putting our observation skills to the test. Ready to see how sharp your mind really is?
A masterpiece to decode: Can you spot all four women?
The image in question was created by Ukrainian artist Oleg Shupliak, known for his mastery of visual illusions.
At first glance, there’s nothing unusual: a woman mid-conversation on the phone. But Shupliak didn’t stop at a simple portrait. He cleverly hid three other female faces within the deceptively detailed composition.
This piece, titled Four Women, is more than just a pretty drawing—it’s a full-blown artistic puzzle. And it’s so intriguing because it challenges us to see beyond what’s right in front of us.
Where are the four women? A few clues (but not too many)
Need a nudge without completely spoiling it? Here are some hints—use them only if you’re truly stuck… or too curious to resist:
The obvious one: the woman on the phone, front and center.
The subtle silhouette: in the palm of her hand, another woman appears faintly, almost transparent.
The hidden profile: to the left, a face takes shape if you follow the lines of the background carefully.
The unexpected face: formed by lips located around the stomach area—a brilliantly sneaky visual trick.
Finding all four is like piecing together a puzzle whose pieces have been in plain sight all along.
Just a game, or a real mental agility test?
No, it’s not exactly an IQ test. But spotting all four women does require concentration, a touch of logic, and—above all—an exceptionally sharp eye.
According to a study shared by News Rebeat, only 2% of people managed to find all four faces without any hints. That tiny percentage adds an extra thrill to the challenge—and gives those who succeed some serious bragging rights.
So… ready to join that visual elite?
The artist behind the illusion
Oleg Shupliak is no stranger to this kind of work. The Ukrainian artist is famous for his double- and triple-layered compositions, where faces and scenes blend seamlessly. Four Women, created in 2013, quickly went viral on social media and continues to captivate puzzle lovers around the globe.
Every one of Shupliak’s creations invites you to slow down, look differently… and marvel at what the human brain can—or can’t—perceive.
