This striking pair of masks is inspired by classical Greek and Roman theater, symbolizing the two essential dramatic genres: comedy and tragedy. The image features two iconic Greek theater masks symbolizing comedy and tragedy. The comedy mask, with a wide grin, raised brows, and small horns, suggests humor and satire.
