Was Shakespeare a painter?
The only two images of Shakespeare for which we have clear contemporary approval are his memorial monument in Stratford, which is a statue, and the Droushout image which appeared at the front of the First Folio, which is an engraving. The search for a painting which depicts Shakespeare has been going on for centuries, with any painting of an unknown man in Elizabethan dress being a possible candidate. Fraudulent paintings based on the Droushout engraving (the Flower portrait) or altered to resemble it abound. The painting with the best possibility of actually being a painting of Shakespeare is the Chandos portrait, which has a pretty solid pedigree and does resemble the two images we know to be accurate. Every few years someone comes forward with a claim that some painting is a genuine likeness of Shakespeare. The press always print these stories in the same way they print the latest claim that some anonymous Elizabethan or Jacobean play is really by Shakespeare. The most recent of these is the Cobbe portrait which does not look anything like the genuine likenesses of Shakespeare but was the basis of a painting which was fraudulently altered to look like him. On this extremely flimsy basis the owner of the painting and Stanley Wells, the Director of the Shakespeare Trust have claimed it is a painting of Shakespeare. Nobody else seems to think so. You can Google image the Droushout, Flower, Chandos, Cobbe and other images purported to be of Shakespeare.

The real author behind Shakespeare's plays and poems has been subject to a controversy dating back about 150 years.

The most popular candidates as the Bard's ghostwriters are Francis Bacon (1561-1626) and Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford (1550-1604); the latter being favored by some on the grounds of Shakespeare's complete lack of productivity during the last decade of his life until 1616.
