A bronze Shakespeare statue stands tall with worn details in a park setting.
A very close view of a William Shakespeare statue is seen in a park area. The statue is of Shakespeare looking straight ahead with his head tilted slightly to the left. His hair is in its usual comb-over style, with short facial hair along his chin and upper lip. The eyes of the statue are hollow to create depth, and the eyebrows are raised with slight wrinkling on the forehead. He wears a collared shirt with detailed embroidery. The embroidery is seen on the collar and along the central chest piece in a vertical, wide strip. The shoulders of the shirt have pleated details. The statue is only seen from the upper chest up. It is made of bronze and there is wear on the top of the head, the nose, and the shoulders, as people have touched these areas the most. Behind the statue's head is the corner of a square post in the same bronze material. The ground below is red-brown mulch, with several bushes in the background. On the upper left is a thick row of colorful tulips seen behind the bushes through a bare spot. Blue and white objects sit on the other side of the tulips. The sun shines down from an angle above, creating small shadows on the statue below the brows, nose, chin and collar. The bushes in the background create shadows of their own.
