The one on the right looks sharper, but that could be for a variety of reasons that have nothing to do with the "look" of the lens. Both images are different, neither better nor worse.
Best regards, John

One on left looks pink one on right more purple. One on right more sharper as well

I say nothing
Little more info can not harm though
Both taken at 85mm
f/2.8
1/125
ISO100
And from what I can read, white balance is the same.
ps. for the 5 that have voted the majority have it correct.

It's quite hard this because it are two very good lenses, I even needed to check I picked the right one so yeah I cheated
If we include me, 15 have voted and the most have the correct answer including me so the correct score is 7 vs 7

The picture on the right does appear slightly sharper and the bokeh on the left does appear slightly less "blotchy" - so I reckon Zeiss left and Pentax right.
Both nice lenses and I'd be more than happy with either tbh.

The two pictures are focussed on different points, look at the leaves in the bottom centre. Makes a sharpness comparison a bit difficult The colours on the left look warmer with smoother bokeh, I'd guess that is the Zeiss.

Some here said you could tell by some qualities of the photo if it's a Pentax or not so this a test if you can. Although nothing scientific.
Most members do know which one is the Pentax though, that does surprise me a little but the numbers are close.

I would hazard a 'shot' at the one on the left
