Tragedy and Comedy Masks - Symbolism in Theater & Performance Art #1217840 (License: Personal Use)

This stylized illustration features two white theatrical masks-the left depicting tragedy with downturned mouth and furrowed brows on a dark gray background, and the right showing comedy with a wide grin and raised eyebrows against soft pink. The stark color contrast emphasizes emotional duality, while clean lines and subtle shading give the icons a modern yet classical appeal. These masks originate from ancient Greek theater and remain universal symbols of dramatic arts today.
