What parody did Weston NOT engage in through his work?

  • Political

  • Whimsical

  • Social

  • None, he only did parodies

Answer

Whimsical is not a parody style associated with Weston's work. Weston's parodies primarily targeted serious or somber artistic styles, such as grand opera or ancient Greek tragedy, subverting their conventions for humorous effect. Whimsical parodies, on the other hand, tend to celebrate and playfully exaggerate the qualities of their source material rather than satirizing them.
