March 5, 2021
"Banquo Mask 1" This group's mask was on the ghost of Banquo. They included a total of 7 symbols on their mask. The most obvious symbol seen on their mask is a knife handle. The knife handle symbolizes the way Banquo died. Another symbol they used was the Scottish flag to represent Banquo's Scottish roots. They painted the entire right side of the mask blue and white with the Scottish flag. Toward the bottom of the mask they put the Scottish war flag and a shield at the top to represent his place in Scottish war. Some other symbols they included are two hands holding each other to represent loyalty and unity placed on each cheek. Also an infinity symbol to show his never ending love for his sons, Fleance and Malcom. The final symbol they included is a halo to show that Banquo is dead.
