This week our intrepid critics take a look at the art of cartoons.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Cartoonists are artists, so cartoons about art and artists come naturally to them. By making serious art the subject of humor, the cartoonist serves as a cultural critic, making fun of the whole idea of high art.<\/p>\n<p>Certain works of art are so ingrained in the public&#8217;s imagination that they can appear in cartoon form and still be recognized. We&#8217;ll consider a few masterpieces that have received cartoon treatment. First up is Auguste Rodin&#8217;s most famous work, commonly known as &#8220;The Thinker&#8221;\u2014a title which begs the question, &#8220;Thinking about what?&#8221; Pat Byrnes has one answer:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartooncollections.com\/cartoon?searchID=NA200475\"target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3770\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/NA200475h.jpg\" alt=\"Pat Byrnes cartoons\" width=\"500\" height=\"592\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/NA200475h.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/NA200475h-253x300.jpg 253w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/NA200475h-768x909.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\" class=\"smfont\">BUY THIS CARTOON<\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Bob Mankoff&#8217;s cartoon implies that The Thinker is not considering anything so deep as the state of man-kind. The cartoon cleverly combines The Thinker with another of Rodin&#8217;s sculptures, &#8220;The Kiss.&#8221; It&#8217;s a perfect New Yorker cartoon, in that it assumes the viewer possesses a certain level of cultural sophistication while it playfully mocks high art.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartooncollections.com\/cartoon?searchID=CC45336\"target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3771\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CC45336h.jpg\" alt=\"Bob Mankoff cartoons\" width=\"400\" height=\"808\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CC45336h.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CC45336h-148x300.jpg 148w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CC45336h-507x1024.jpg 507w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CC45336h-768x1552.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CC45336h-760x1536.jpg 760w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\" class=\"smfont\">BUY THIS CARTOON<\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Edvard Munch&#8217;s &#8220;The Scream&#8221; depicts existential anxiety as perhaps no other work of art does. Painted in 1893, it speaks to viewers today as it did more than a century ago, which may explain why it pops up in various forms on modern commercial products. In a cartoon by Phil Witte, co-author of Anatomy of a Cartoon, Munch himself imagines to his horror that his masterpiece could become a prop of pop culture.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartooncollections.com\/cartoon?searchID=CS488533\"target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3773\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CS488533h.jpg\" alt=\"Phil Witte cartoons\" width=\"500\" height=\"711\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CS488533h.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CS488533h-211x300.jpg 211w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CS488533h-720x1024.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CS488533h-768x1092.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\" class=\"smfont\">BUY THIS CARTOON<\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Stylized versions of The Thinker and The Scream communicate with each other in Marcelo Rampazzo&#8217;s cartoon, yet another example of depicting the subjects of the artwork as having thoughts and feelings.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartooncollections.com\/cartoon?searchID=CS285691\"target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3774\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CS285691h.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"452\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CS285691h.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CS285691h-300x272.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CS285691h-768x695.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\" class=\"smfont\">BUY THIS CARTOON<\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Other cartoons rely on an observer&#8217;s reaction to the art. These cartoons are usually set in art museums or the artist&#8217;s studio. In a 1964 Barney Tobey cartoon, a child asks a perfectly reasonable question after coming upon Henri Rousseau&#8217;s mysteriously evocative &#8220;The Sleeping Gypsy.&#8221; The simple caption, so matter-of-fact, cannot be improved upon.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartooncollections.com\/cartoon?searchID=CC42645\"target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3781\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CC42645h.jpg\" alt=\"Barney Tobey cartoons\" width=\"500\" height=\"456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CC42645h.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CC42645h-300x274.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CC42645h-768x701.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\" class=\"smfont\">BUY THIS CARTOON<\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Museum-goers often rely on experts to explain the art, pontificating on what the artist intended, how the brushwork and colors express that intent, how the art fits in historical context, and so on.
