1 giug 1784 anni - The Loves of the Fox and the Badger (Coalition Wedding)

Descrizione:

This publication was the first to utilize frames, captions, and balloons. According to MusicBanter.com, "Even better is The Loves of the Fox and the Badger, which introduces anthropomorphic characters (the two politicians being satirised shown as a fox and a badger) at least a hundred years or more before cartoonists would even contemplate such a thing. Not only that (there is some anthropomorphism in the previous drawing too, though minimal) he also uses, possibly (I’d have to check) for the first time in any cartoon drawing, thought balloons as well as speech balloons. These of course would become wildly popular in comics and cartoons, as a way of differentiating between when a character was saying something and when he, she or it was thinking it instead. Trailblazing, indeed. I think he has to get my vote." This explains the comic and everything it includes and what it is based on. Introducing animals for political parties and such, this comic was a staple in history.
