EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the crisp autumn evening of October 26,1993. Standing tall and proud on the North Portico of the iconic White House is a colossal jack-o'-lantern, measuring an impressive 17 1/2 by 21 feet. The masterpiece, crafted from sturdy plywood, exudes an enchanting glow as it illuminates the night sky. As pedestrians stroll along Pennsylvania Avenue, their eyes are drawn to this magnificent sight that heralds the approaching Halloween festivities. Its intricate carvings depict whimsical scenes and spooky creatures that capture both the imagination and spirit of this beloved holiday. The artist behind this remarkable creation is none other than Paul J. Richards from Agence France-Presse (AFP). With his skilled hand and keen eye for detail, Richards has transformed a simple vegetable into a work of art that symbolizes joy and celebration. This photograph beautifully captures not only the grandeur of this larger-than-life pumpkin but also showcases how tradition seamlessly blends with modernity at one of America's most revered landmarks. It serves as a reminder that even in such esteemed settings like the White House, there is always room for playfulness and creativity. Let us be inspired by this extraordinary display as we eagerly anticipate Halloween's arrival – a time when imagination takes flight and communities come together in revelry.
