Koopman en financieel agent der Engelse kroon in de Nederlanden, stichter van de Londense beurs en van Gresham College te Londen (easel painting (painting by form); Antonio Moro (Utrecht 1519 - 1575); 1560/1565; Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands); SK-A-3118; RM001.collect.4638)

Note: Seated in a leather chair is a middle-aged man. He seems a neat sort of person, with his short beard and bright, alert glance. His clothes are made of a black, shiny material. The ring on his index finger and his gloves reveal his wealth. This is Thomas Gresham, a merchant, in his forties. He was the financial representative of the English Crown in the Netherlands. The portrait was painted in 1564 by the Utrecht artist Anthonie Mor van Dashorst.
