| Notes |
English: A three-quarter-length portrait, of Sir Thomas Savage, who inherited Melford Hall in 1602, seated, with stylish beard, in black silk robes of office (with the purse of office) as Lord Chancellor to Queen Henrietta Maria, against an acqua-green background. The richly-embroidered purse of office on the table clearly bears the cypher "HMR" ("Henrietta Maria Regina"), indicating that the sitter was the Queen's Chancellor which Thomas Savage held from 1627 until his death in 1635. |
