A Greenman is a sculpture found across many cultures around the globe from the dawn of time. Often seen outside in parks or formal gardens, hanging on walls or trees, the green Man is a face surround or made from leaves. Branches or vines may sprout from the nose, mouth, or other parts of the face. The Green Man is often related to natural vegetative deities. It is primarily interpreted as a symbol of rebirth representing the cycle of growth each spring.
