Mark Hedges, Editor of ->Country Life announced in his magazine (May 20) the "Literary Discovery of the Century":
A new portrait of Shakespeare, the first ever that is identified as him by the artist and made in his lifetime.
It has been dicovered by botanist and historian Mark Griffiths’, an expert in the role of flora in the literature of the English Renaissance .- As a result of this discovery, Country Life will reveal a new play by Shakespeare and how his career was launched.
Mister Jim in the "The Guardian" convincingly rejected Mark Griffiths theory.
