What is Cartoon?
A cartoon is a type of visual art that is typically drawn, frequently
animated, in an unrealistic or semi-realistic style. The specific meaning
has evolved over time, but the modern usage usually refers to either:
an image or series of images intended for satire , caricature, or humor;
or a motion picture that relies on a sequence of illustrations for its
animation. Someone who creates cartoons in the first sense is called a
cartoonist, and in the second sense they are usually called an animator.
The Oldest Cartoon in
the World

Fantasmagorie is considered to be the oldest cartoon in

the world. The very short animation is one of the earliest
examples of traditional hand drawn animation. It was
created in 1908 by French cartoonist Émile Cohl.
The film depicts a stick figure man moving around and
encountering morphing objects such as a wine bottle
that turns into a flower.
