From the NYC Village Halloween Parade, 1982–86.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eHigh above the vibrant chaos of the mid-1980s Village Halloween Parade, this black-and-white perspective was captured from a second-story window at 59 West Tenth Street. Utilizing a 135mm lens on a 35mm Pentax, the long focal point compresses the bustling NYC street scene, bringing a group of political satirists into sharp focus. The revelers march behind a large banner that provocatively bridges history, comparing 1784 Marie Antoinette to 1984 Ronald Reagan under the infamous quote, \"Let Them Eat Cake.\" Shot on Kodak Tri-X film, the classic grain enhances the documentary feel of the protest art, while a powerful professional strobe light illuminates the ornate, 18th-century powdered wigs and silk waistcoats against the dark asphalt. This elevated vantage point provides a unique look at the theatrical intersection of history and 1980s politics during Greenwich Village's most famous night.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"20 x 16″ \/ GVHP B\u0026W on Epson Smooth 250grm","offer_id":41561349652551,"sku":"539735-29792916-508000-406000","price":249.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0602\/3240\/0967\/files\/Eat_Cake_GVHP_Sht_005_Frame_035A_Merge_sm_PREVIEW.jpg?v=1743189978","url":"https:\/\/scottlaperruque.myshopify.com\/products\/eat-cake-nyc-village-halloween-parade-1982-86","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
