Music is a mystery for people who play it, write it, listen to it, and write about it. The only thing I can really do when I try to say something about music is assume.
Having known conductors who were apes and players who were jackasses, I'd say the cartoon is drawn from the public's point-of-view, though that likely was not the intent of the cartoonist.
I am active as a composer, a violist, a violinist, a recorder player, and as a teacher. I have been keeping this space in the blogosphere alive with assumptions about music (and assorted other things) since 2005.

Who knows what the cartoonist was thinking!
