Thanks Paul ! Several things about these caricatures :it's a period that always fascinated me (since I was kid, with a comic book sery called "Les Tuniques Bleues"). It's easier when you are in empathy with the subject, if not the person (Forrest...).Technically, it's something "I know to do". Pencil is my favorite "weapon". And these people are not so difficult to draw : it's possible to find very good reference pictures for many of them. But, quite often, only ONE. So, no place for any doubt about their facial features...
