Commonly depicted as a face, surrounded by leaves, he appears frequently as a name for English pubs. Considered the muse for Robin Hood, Jack in the Green & other green, folklore characters – he is as constant as Spring & the festivals associated with it. Digging a little deeper he has starring roles in other centuries & countries. Is there a connection between these characters, and if so—what is it?
