when you look at an image..how do u determine whether its caricature or hyperbole. im in search for images for a poster

okay. caricature is like an image that exaggerates certain features - like those political comics with john howard and those enormous eyebrows. hyperbole is an exaggeration or overstatement, in words. caricature is to do with images, and hyperbole is to do with the written and spoken word.
