The stunning artwork depicts a man kneeling in front of another person in a red robe as others watch from behind.
A person with brilliant vision should be able to quickly find faces, one of which is cheekily sandwiched between the two main men in the photo.
If you can solve an optical illusion, you could be the next Robert Langdon with your clever problem-solving brain.
The painting shows four men in a religious setting, while one kneels before a wise older man praying or asking for forgiveness.

In the background, two other men watch as the bearded man puts his hands on his shoulders.
The contrast between the bright red and brown colors of the front two men and the dark black background is designed to slow you down and distract you.
The goal is for the dark colors to sneakily distract you and waste time looking for that area instead of looking at the obvious areas of the image.
This makes it almost impossible to find the final face in less than six seconds because you need to search it super fast.
Studies have shown that people who regularly face optical illusions and puzzles see great improvements in their problem-solving skills, concentration and attention.
Psychologists at the University of Glasgow have discovered that looking at an optical illusion can improve vision by allowing you to see fine print.
And according to ZenBuisness, “These visual puzzles can provide you with good mental exercise, which in turn can help you think more effectively and solve problems more easily.”
The test puzzle looks like a painting by one of the greats Rembrandt, but it’s actually by Oleg Shupliak, a clever artist who likes to test the detective skills of his fans.
The photo left many wanting to find the hidden faces, but a few struggled with the cleverly placed features of the final face in an unusual style.
In this particular piece, people with a high visual IQ should be able to spot the first four faces within a few seconds and give themselves some time to see through the tricks and stay focused on the small deviations in the image.
Many people will be able to spot a few words quickly, but then struggle to understand the rest before time runs out.
If you still can’t find all five faces, scroll down to see the solution below.
