 While I can see it might be Chinese, it also looks somewhat
 like the pictures of \/\/ill Shakespeare with his domed balding head.

This is sort of a sarcastic thing that you can send in reply to pretentious,
moronic usenet postings or whatever ;-)

It's a chinese head combined with the letter W. The W stands for Wise, hence
the old, chinese man's head. At the same time, it sort of looks like the guy
doesn't have a clue, holding his hands up and raising his sholders.

Cool. Can you post an example or provide a link?

 Not off hand, but web-search "William, Shakespeare, biography"
 should turn something up.  Shakespeare was the biggest thing
 in the literature of England at the time when corresponding 
 French stage writing was crap (don't know about the rest 
 of Europe in 16thC).  There are very few extant pictures 
 of him, and all come from the same 2 or 3 drawings, so
 you will soon see what I mean if you find a pic.
