Caricature is not a new art form. It has been there for a very long time. Caricaturists and cartoonists often resort to portraying an object in a way that amplifies its real or perceived characteristics or defects.
For a novice caricaturist, this art is nothing more than an attempt to ridicule some person or action. For many, caricatures are primarily about exaggeration and derision of personal peculiarities. However, in the hands of a master craftsman, this device can provide an effective platform to offer refined satirical perspectives on the follies and foibles of the society and social players. The difference between the two is the same as lowbrow sarcasm and intellectually credible critique.
