Thalia was the Greek Muse of Comedy

Thalia was the Greek Muse of comedy and pastoral poetry. She had eyes that flowed love and is often depicted holding a comic mask. The main attribute of Thalia was a shepherd's crook.

Some mythologists claim that Thalia was also the Muse of vegetation, because of the origin of her name "thalo", i.e. "bloom".
