Mrs. Stevens

**The Green Man** After I had investigated some of the sites pertaining the Green Man, I realized that I had seen variations of his image my whole life; however, I did not realize that he had a history. I just thought he was kind of intriguing and was a pretty cool garden decoration! Maybe that's the way we are perpetuating these ancient myths.

I discovered that there was significance to his color, that there are characters often related to the green man, and that his face is often a mask consisting of natural elements, usually leaves and vines. His visage is often used in the facades of buildings and home; There are over 2000 images found on buildings in England!
