What the museum label doesn't tell you
The trick works twice. Up top, the conjurer pulls a toad from his mouth and the whole crowd gawks, mouths open. Down at belt height, an accomplice child calmly cuts the purse off the man most transfixed by the show, the one in the striped hood. No one in the scene notices the real theft, and your eye tends to follow theirs, missing it too. The deception doubles here: dendrochronology dates this panel to around 1502, yet the Rijksmuseum doubts it's actually by Bosch, linking it instead to a late-1500s Antwerp workshop. A painting about illusion whose own maker remains unresolved. Do you watch the toad, or the pocket?
