 "A sweet-face man; a proper man, as one shall see in a summer's day"
(Shakespeare,  A Midsummer Night's Dream, 1. 2)
Which Shakespeare do you prefer? the bald one or the one with an earring? the middle aged or the smiling young man? We don't know for sure what he looked like but here you can see his portrait  as shown in the First Folio. they say that it is the most similar to the real Bard.
Some scholars have found this portrait and they say it is the only one painted during his lifetime.
Task: Have a look to the portraits and choose one, then write a short description.

Sorry for interrupting, but I was just wondering if you'd like to have some limonada
