Most People Can’t See How Many Horses In This Picture – Can You?
There have been many optical illusions randomly appearing on the internet which have left a number of people puzzled.
The latest illusion to split the internet, however, is a painting of a group of horses – and no one can quite seem to agree on how many horses are actually there.

Are there more?
Some people claim that there’s a sixth and the seventh horse in this painting.
These people say that there’s a sixth horse behind the ones in the middle. Personally, I don’t see it, but you might be one of the ones who can.
There’s also a rocky outcropping behind the herd, which can be interpreted as an abstract horse.
You judge for yourself – but personally, I think 5 horses is the right answer!

Apparently, only 1 in 7 people can spot the quintet on their first try!
