"Red phantom lattice"*

It appears that red "clouds" are floating in front of a blue-and-yellow checkerboard.

*Strict speaking, this is not a representation of the visual phantom illusion, but the "unique transparency" (Anderson, 1997) is shared with the visual phantom phenomenon. Kitaoka, Gyona, Kawabata and Sakurai, 2001 Thanks to Mark.
