PAINTED CARICATURES
by ERGUN AKLEMAN

This caricature of Turkan Soray, a Turkish movie star, is published in Ses magazine's Atmaca section as a full-page. Luckily, I found the whole collection of Atmaca's in a rare & antique bookstore in Ankara. The one on the left is the actual scanned page.
The caricature is from 1982. As you can see from her recent photos below, her face did not change much in 20 years.

Painted caricatures of Ayetullah Khomeini and Caspar Weinberger, U.S. Secretary of Defense during Reagan administration. These caricatures from 1985 are not particularly strong. They are drawn as a portrait style with not much exaggeration.
