 1561095330,
Full-length portrait of Abraham Newland (c. 1730-1807), the chief cashier at the Bank of England from 1782 to 1807. The expression "an Abraham Newland" came to mean a bank note, because without his signature, a Bank of England note was not negotiable. He is depicted standing near a table, while holding a letter. Engraving on wove paper, sheet size 168 x 107 mm. By an anonymous engraver, c. 1780. In good condition, cropped within platemark left right and bottom, scattered faint foxing throughout.
