This is my Persona!! Peruere Harlequin. I went with a specific harlequin from I think 1699 (Year may be 1699-1800s) This designs eyes are typically always closed it originally was closed cus I was too lazy to draw eyes but atp it kind of became a thing so!!! It’s supposed to be accurate to the actually harlequin/Arlecchino from the Italian play, Commedia dell'arte.

I added my own twist and gave her makeup, that being face makeup with a paler complexion and red lipstick, also a beauty mark below her right eye bc I also have a beauty mark there!!!!!!!!! and ofc mentioning again her closed eyes. ehem copy from google...The symbolism of closed eyes varies across cultures and contexts. In the Western world, closed eyes in art symbolize “sleep, suffering, or death”. In Hindu and Buddhist cultures, closed eyes symbolize looking inward towards the self. The Buddha, with eyes closed, is able to “penetrate into the essence of things”. In dreams, closed eyes can have different interpretations depending on the context in which they are presented. They can symbolize denial or avoidance, fear or anxiety, tranquility or bliss, self-discovery or reflection, empathy or intuition. Id like to say “sleep, suffering, or death” rlly suits my persona so i will go with that meaning that her closed eyes represent, all 3.

Arlecchino (gi one) is my persona specifcally bc shes a synpath and heavy CL for me!!! I connect alot with her and see myself with her so it only made sense for her to be my persona.
