The book starts by discussing the "paganisation" of Green Men in recent decades, then follows backwards through the Victorian Gothic Revival, Baroque, Rococco and Italianate revivals, to their heyday in the Gothic and the supposed origins in the Romanesque. As part of this discussion there is background information on the cultural changes that affected how Green Men were regarded. The author also discusses the comparisons that have been made with Cernunnus, Robin Hood, Jack-in-the-Green, woodwoses, Baphomet, Al Khidr and Bulgarian peperuda. She also investigates which pagan god Green Men supposedly represent. Explore Green Men is illustrated with 110 photographs and drawings, mostly of Green Men who have never before showed their faces in books. This book will appeal to all with an interest in Green Men and to art historians looking for a reliable study of this fascinating decorative motif.
