Creative Pumpkin Carvings Inspired by Famous Art

MC Escher's Drawing Hands

Since today is now officially Halloween, you know what that means? This is one of the last times, this year, we'll write about all that goes into the festive holiday. After seeing artist Scott Cummins' MC Escher-inspired pumpkin, we decided to round up some of the best art inspired pumpkin carvings ever created. From Gustav Klimt's The Kiss to Edvard Munch's The Scream may these reimagined works of art awaken your creative spirit the next Halloween.
