The face in the leaves is always present. Most of the Green Man visual art is portrayed through the combination of foliage and the human head, giving the image the ability to express emotion.

We also may equate the Green Man image with the analogy that Plato (circa 300bc) often referred to in his philosophies, whereby the mysteries of the forest can be compared to the unknowns of the human mind.
