"Shakespeare" Portraits ? |
Many portraits have been claimed to be of Shakespeare ...... whether they are of Will Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon, or Christopher Marlowe, or neither of the two, is greatly debated ...... |
In my view the Grafton portrait is probably of Kit Marlowe ...... the Sanders portrait is not |
The Grafton Portrait = Proof ? the art grant it ? At top right on rafter At top right ...... fear torn ? In trap, forgot the art "Not that pi art forger ?" "Paint that rot forger ?" Not right, to fear trap ? Got farther into trap ? |

There is a belief that the Droeshout portrait is based on Elizabeth I ......see links { i.e. "H.M." .......} |
in that era, paintings were often made on playing cards, or indeed made *as* playingcards |
