Caricature
Caricature is a deliberate distortion of, and unflattering emphasis on, a person’s physical appearance.
Compare the following examples of caricatures of Australia’s former prime minister Kevin Rudd and discuss:
•Is any part realistic?
•Is it cruel or kind?
•What is emphasised?
•Is it funny?
•Is it recognisable?
