        now that's silly, and HEARTly an illusion ) if anything, the illusion here is that there are hearts, behind the stripses of the opposite color.

        That's not true. The heart shape is made from white pixels in the left image and black pixels in the right

        in both images, the heart is made of alternating stripes of white and black. if you were to replace the background in both with purple, the hearts would appear to have the same lightness.
