What is a "caricature"?
A caricature is a drawing or illustration that exaggerates or changes certain features or characteristics of a person or subject to create a humorous or critical effect. Often used to emphasize the most recognizable traits, caricatures aim to capture the essence of the person or subject in a playful or exaggerated manner. They are commonly used in newspaper cartoons, entertainment, and personal portraits.
