Hidden images (e.g., among others, the cannabis plants...) sometimes are hidden just for fun.

From severnbeachantiques.com/famous-rare-1980-huntley-and-palmer-rude-garden-party-ginger-nuts-tin you learn about one among many reasons why artist hide images in images:
"I did them out of devilment, purely for a laugh. I've always been a bit of a naughty boy but I've nothing against Huntley & Palmers. There have been rumours that I got made redundant and did it out of revenge. But that's not true - I was only ever a freelance. I just felt like adding a bit of smut to the proceedings."
That is what Artist Mick Hill said about his hidden surprises in the cover (1980) of a Huntley and Palmer garden party ginger nuts tin.

How much fun had Henry Holiday in one of his illustrations to Lewis Carroll's The Hunting of the Snark when he alluded to John Martin's The Bard?

Also here it is John Martin's art which is behind Henry Holiday's art.
