Politically Biased Portrayals of the Ratte-Kinge

It is often speculated that political cartoons originated in Isse-Lande, as a response to ever-dramatic politics and policies during the days of King Kessler's and the Ratte-Kinge's monarchies. Caricatures were naturally used both by those with more wit than quill stability and more quill stability than wit. Here are some cropped portrayals of Nikoulasse, all parodies his stock image.

(Before the advent of photography, one portrait was reproduced and distributed when necessary. Nikoulasse's portrayed him positively as he concentrated on his work; his somewhat foreign portrait artist was told that he was focused on bettering the towne of Isse-Lande.)
