Comedy and Tragedy Masks - Symbols of Theater and Dramatic Arts #1212992 (License: Personal Use)

This image features the traditional theatrical masks of comedy and tragedy: a white smiling mask with arched brows on the left, and a black frowning mask with downturned eyes on the right. Rendered in bold black-and-white vector style, they symbolize the two foundational genres of Western drama, originating from ancient Greek theater. These icons remain widely used in modern contexts to represent performance arts, emotional contrast, and narrative structure.
