About
A cartoon (from Italian: carton and Dutch: carton—words describing strong, heavy paper or pasteboard) is a full-size drawing made on sturdy paper as a design or Modella for a painting, stained glass, or tapestry. Cartoons were typically used in the production of frescoes, to accurately link the component parts of the composition when painted on damp plaster over a series of days . In media such as stained tapestry or stained glass, the cartoon was handed over by the artist to the skilled craftsmen who produced the final work.
