"Caricature of Man, Woman and Dog" is a satirical pen-and-ink drawing by Alfred Henry Forrester, also known as "Alfred Crowquill," created in 1869. This whimsical artwork depicts a woman with a deer head, a man with an elephant's head, and a small dog, all presented in an exaggerated, humorous style. The drawing, now part of the Art Institute of Chicago collection, is a prime example of Crowquill's talent for capturing the absurdity of everyday life through caricature. This light-hearted piece showcases his keen observation and wit, and is sure to provoke a smile from viewers who appreciate the art of the caricature.
