Best Answer

The Chandos Portrait is a decent but not great painting of a fairly well-off, slightly bohemian Elizabethan man who mayhave been William Shakespeare. If it does represent the Bard himself, it is the only likeness drawn from life, and it certainly informs our idea of what Shakespeare "must " have looked like. But there is no way of knowing.
