The Pinocchio Effect: Illustration of Deception and Dishonesty #98028 (License: Personal Use)

This vibrant cartoon features a balding man in a blue suit and red-and-blue striped tie, his nose dramatically extended to symbolize falsehood. His wide, startled eyes and clenched teeth convey guilt or panic, while his raised hand suggests denial or deflection. The exaggerated style draws from classic comic tropes to communicate moral lessons about honesty.
