The Office of Public Mood measures sighs and fig-throwing

Photo or realistic illustration in the Roman Forum: an officious clerk with wax tablet and stylus (OPM insignia on a wooden tag) stands beside a queue of citizens; one citizen visibly sighing while another winds up to throw a fig at a weary tax collector in plain tunic holding a coin pouch. Keep it comedic but non-violent: fig mid-air, tax collector flinching, onlookers half-amused. Background: columns, market stalls, Latin graffiti-like signage.
