Angerstein was a prominent financier and a founder of Lloyd's. The collection at his house in Pall Mall, formed with the advice of Lawrence, was bought by the British government after his death and forms the nucleus of the National Gallery, London.
This is one of several autograph replicas of a portrait painted in 1816.
