This looks exactly like a face. However, I don't think it is. I think it is two seperate objects combined which give the illusion of a face. But there are other objects in this image which are interesting, for example, the object to the right of the 'face' which is symmetrical and has some sort of ribbed pattern on it. It should be noted that these objects have been lying on Mars for thousands, if not millions of years and have been subject to erosion over that time.

Carved Stone Motif
This motif seems to appear quite often. See other posts.

Carved Stone
There are many similar examples of this kind of thing in the original NASA image

Carved Stones - ancient ruins on Mars
These stones show a lot a very sharp detail. You can see where there are symbols cut in relief around the stones. These cannot be said to be just rocks, or a trick of the light. These are stones which have been cut into very intricate shapes. You can see this a little more clearly on the image below. The colour change is because I boosted the contrast which alters the colours slightly.

More carved stone on Mars
Some more intricate detail can be seen on these stones.

Gothic Carvings on Mars
The slightly green colour on this object can be seen in many other objects on the Martian surface. It seems to indicate that these objects are made from metal or stone which is distinct from the surrounding area. In some ways it resembles cast iron but is probably some other material. Again, notice the symmetry in the object, not only is the entire object symmetrical but the individual carvings within it are also symmetrical.

Sandstone with metal object embedded in it
I have copied and highlighted the metal object in the green area to try to show it more clearly.
