CARICATURE

Greetings friends Steemians! Recently I visited a place with a very particular setting based on cartoons, which gave it a modern touch and I liked it a lot. I enjoyed admiring each of them, today I share some of the photographs of their walls.

The caricature was born in the sixteenth century, in a school located in Bologna, where students practiced with visitors, gathered characteristics of people with animals and animated objects, from there it spread throughout Rome, popularizing among tourists for a price under the realization of a personal caricature.

It comes from the Italian word "caricare" which means to load or exaggerate, the cartoons consist of exaggerating the physical features or characteristics of the people and thus create a recognizable drawing for society, these drawings or cartoons usually have characteristics of a humorous nature.

Technique This drawing technique is based on capturing the most marked features of that person or character and exaggerating and thus form a comedy, but the main purpose of these drawings is to make a graphic humor.

You can make murals with different characters, as in the following photograph in which magnificently were drawn to 3 large: The Three Stooges, Cantinflas and Don Ramon.
