Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art Date! I chose to do a portrait of William Shakepeare (1564-1616) for Rain's 'Wisdom of the Ages' theme. The bard had many wise quotes in the Modern English of that time. It is hard to understand nowadays. 'All that glitters is not gold' is fairly straightforward. 'To thine own self be true' is another of many famous and wise quotes of his.
