Summary/Abstract: The humor press, which had gained acceleration in the last periods of the Ottoman Empire with the Tanzimat (Reorganization, the period of reform in the Ottoman Empire) in particular, exhibited more expansion after the declaration of The Second Constitutional Era. During this period, many humorous newspapers and cartoon magazines were published, and especially with the proclamation of the Republic, it is seen that also liberation in this area increased. Although many cartoonists produced several works during these periods, Ramiz Gökçe (1900-1953) appears to be the cartoonist who produced the most works. Having made important contributions to Turkish cartoon art, Ramiz Gökçe, with his bold drawings, also undertakes a task of an important memory that tells about social change and conveys periodic events in the transition period from the Ottoman Empire to the Republic of Turkey. In addition to these, he popularized and imposed the cartoon to the Turkish people. In this study, a descriptive analysis was made on the art life of Ramiz Gökçe, one of the period masters who influenced the early period of the Republic of Turkey with his drawings, with the method of systematic organization of data.
