This image presents a hauntingly melancholic portrait of a joker, the face intimately adorned with traditional pigments of white, green, red, and blue. A single teardrop trickles down the painted visage, smearing the makeup, revealing raw sorrow behind the facade of mirth. Imbued in the shadows of dim light, with the focus on expression-laden eyes, the image masterfully expresses the paradoxical blend of humor and heartache.
