Thanks Jano! This is a metal wall plaque of "The Green Man", a symbol of spring, the rebirthing of the earth, which has been used throughout western history as a diety or a decorative element in architecture. The wideness at the bottom of the face is due to the leaves around his face. A crop would work also - thanks! CJ

I might add, if I may, that I would have cropped the bottom out, possibly even up to just to the top of the upper lip. It seems to get too wide at the bottom. I still like it though!! jano

This is awesome CJ - is it a person or a statue? I love the way you can just tell the outline to make it out. jano
