It was made during his second visit to England in 1532 when Cromwell was advancing as a trusted councillor of the king. The mount has been cut from a playing card of the suit of spades. This portrait is mounted in the same case as another, later, miniature of Cromwell. </dc:description> <dc:description>Purchased with help from the National Heritage Memorial Fund and the Art Fund, 1994.
