Alderman Finnis at Mansion House
Visitors to the Mansion House, on entering by the main entrance on Walbrook, are greeted by the kindly face of Alderman Finnis, whose portrait is hanging in the lobby on the ground floor. He served as Lord Mayor from 1856 - 1857. The oil on canvas (99cm x 127cm), which depicts Thomas Quested Finnis in the robes of Sheriff of London in 1849, was painted by Thomas Roods.
