When Art Comes To Life,

and walks!


 all photographs and GIF from @_ellie_ in Kawasaki, Japan, a sextet of famous paintings marched their way through the city’s annual Halloween parade,

 Picasso’s “The Weeping Woman,” Vincent van Gogh’s self portrait, Johannes Vermeer’s “Girl with a Pearl Earring,” Leonardo da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa,” Edvard Munch’s “The Scream,” and of course Beast Jesus, the art world’s favorite botched masterpiece,

 costume wearers presented themselves as the subjects of the famous paintings from the waist up, with fishnet stockings and heels from the waist down,

the group won the Pumpkin Award, taking home the grand prize and 500,000 yen, or around $4,400, You can see other prize winners of the Kawasaki Halloween parade on their website, it looks like good fun if you see what is happening on the links.
