Caricature

Caricature, derived from the Italian "caricare" meaning "to load" or "exaggerate," is a unique form of visual art. It involves humorously exaggerating and distorting the distinctive features or characteristics of a person, object, or subject. Caricatures often employ satire, wit, and playful exaggeration to convey social or political commentary, entertain, or amuse viewers. This art form has a rich history and continues to be a popular means of artistic expression and communication.
