	Guardian Unlimited Books \| By genre \| Anthony Holden: Shakespeare's 'true love'
		Experts who have studied the facts now agree that the portrait is undoubtedly the earliest known image of the third Earl of Southampton - Shakespeare's patron, the 'fair youth' addressed in his sonnets - somewhere between the age of 17 and 20 and painted at exactly the time those first few sonnets were written.
		Unlike all the other extant portraits of Southampton, who later chose to be depicted as a rather more macho courtier and soldier, this is much more the face of the androgynous creature the poet ambiguously called the 'master-mistress of my passion' in the twentieth of the 154-sonnet cycle.
