Framed Caricature Portrait
There are plenty of ways of making fun of others, but few come even remotely close to caricatures when it comes to artistic representations. Contrary to popular belief, this form of art can also be complimentary and many serve political purposes. The bottom line is that they cover a broad spectrum of artwork and the most successful once can be admired at FramedArt.com. The collection of Framed Caricature Portraits includes images exaggerating or oversimplifying the traits of famous people.
Caricatures are not actually an invention of modern people and they have been around for a long time, although they became truly popular with the advent of newspapers. Framed Caricature Portraits were invented in Italy but they quickly expanded beyond borders and they were particularly popular in England. They are supposed to focus on real life people and not fictional characters, due to the fact that an artist needs to use the actual features of a real person when creating a caricature.
In modern times, this art is praised by street artists, with some remarkable Framed Caricature Portraits being crafted by these artisans. Most of the caricatures are actually drawings of real people and only a fraction of them consist of paintings. Those created on the street are sold as souvenirs to tourists and many of them are drawn in a matter of minutes, which makes them perfect for weddings and carnivals. Almost without exception they are supposed to be funny, unlike those featuring newspapers and magazines which are also aimed at conveying a message.
