Mardi Gras in 1938

This image, entitled Mardi Gras by William Vandivert, shows two horses and lots of people surrounding a carriage. This is a great example of perspective and is again photojournalism because it shows an event that took place in 1938. The perspective is interesting because the image was taken from one side of the horses so the viewer can see the people in the carriage and the two horses. This allows the viewer to see the costumes of the people riding the horse, which allows the viewer to conclude that this image was taken on Mardi Gras.
