After giving it some thought I've decided to write my essay about how cartoons have influenced politics throughout the years. I've decided to do this as I feel it will be easier to produce illustrations to go along side the topic. That doesn't mean I will stop posting articles and videos of current events as I feel this research will potentially still help inform my essay and my practical work as they evolve together.
Part of my reasoning for this is that I found this illustration of William Pitt the Younger and Napoleon di Buonaparte by James Gill which amused me. I feel that there is quite a strong area to be discussed about political commentary throughout the ages.
Immediately after seeing this I researched the two leaders to see what they were about (Napoleon I have a basic understanding of already).
William Pitt the Younger
Napoleon di Buonaparte
