Just wanted to express belated thanks to Jack B for pointing me towards this image, which I'll be using in a forthcoming lecture on Cecil Sharp's work.

Apologies to the above Guest, who took my attempted drollery about an uncanny likeness at face value - the artwork is funny and provocative, because it portrays John England as a stereotypical rosy-cheeked English yokel. That's just how some subsequent analysts have claimed Sharp viewed the singers he met, although I don't think that was the case. At any rate, the real John England cuts a much more impressive figure in his photograph - and he was actually mowing the lawn, not rearranging his greenhouse, as he sang the 'Seeds of Love'. Come to that, Sharp overhearing the song was no accident either.
