Possible origin for Pierrot, a famous, sad clown in French theatre.
From Wikipedia: "According to Bakken publicity, the character is more than 4,000 years old, and originated in Turkey (known as Asia Minor). It is also claimed that in ancient times, the broad red mouth of the character was created by physically cutting the mouth to make it larger."
