12 John Julius Angerstein resided for many years at Woodlands in Blackheath. Much of the house is still standing in Mycenae oad and was occupied by the Angerstein family as a country villa from 1774-1870.

Linked with the Angersteins is another well-known eighteenth century family, The Locks of Norbury Park, and to give a well-balanced picture of the Angersteins I have included relevant notes of the Locks.

Most family stories begin with a legend and the Angersteins certainly had one. John Julius Angerstein was born in St. Petersburg in 1735 and although he acknowledged this, his parentage was never elucidated at the time. There was a belief that he was the natural son of a Russian merchant by the name of Andrew Polent Thompson and that his mother was Catherine the Great, Empress of Russia. This is doubtful as Catherine would have been six years of age when Angerstein was born. What is more probable is explained in some family notes which were discovered in an Angerstein deed box, and which came to light recently. The notes were written at the turn of the twentieth century, and it is likely that family gossip and the memory of the older members of the family would be fresh and accurate.

From these notes it would appear that Angerstein's mother was the Empress Anne of Russia, and that Angerstein was the natural son of Anne and Andrew Poulett Thompson, the Russian merchant. This is feasible as Anne would have been forty years of age at the time of his birth.

There is a logical explanation for the name Angerstein. The German doctor who attended the confinement was Doctor Henry Angerstein, and he was, according to the notes, asked to take charge of the child and give him his name. That Anne had a German doctor is possible as it is well known that she surrounded herself with German courtiers in St. Petersburg, much to the annoyance of the Russian Nobles.

There is a note that Henry Angerstein married Eva Pritzen and had one child, a girl, and all are burried in Riga.

The "Gentleman's Magazine" of August 12th 1806 there is an obituary announcing the decease of a Mrs. Angerstein, in St. Petersburg, aged 93 years. She would have been twenty three years of age when J. J. Angerstein was born and might have been his real mother, but she may well have been Eva Pritzen, the widow of Dr. Henry Angerstein and therefore the foster mother of J. J. Angerstein.

In the same notes there is mention of a brother to John Julius Angerstein from the same liaison of the Empress Anne and Andrew Thompson, named Peter. There is no further information except that the brother was a general, and one must assume that he stayed in Russia. 		ANGERSTEIN John, , M.P.
 
13 Angerstein, John Julius (1735-1823), London merchant and patron of the fine arts, was born at St. Petersburg and settled in London about 1749. His collection of paintings, consisting of about 40 of the most exquisite specimens of the art, purchased by the British government by a vote of 60,000 pounds, on his death, January 22, 1823, formed the nucleus of the National Gallery.
Angerstein was a great friend of Sir Thomas Lawrence, who helped him in the collection of his pictures and painted a portrait of him, which was given to the National Gallery by William IV.

From ART TREASURES OF THE LOUVRE, Plate 50, LAWRENCE (1769-1830), Julius Angerstein and His Wife. Text translated and adapted from the French of RENE HUYGHE, Curator-in-Chief of Painting and Drawing, THE LOUVRE.

Successor to the generation of Reynolds and Gainsborough, Lawrence was the last of the great English portrait painters. Achieving fame in his early twenties he went on to a career of brilliant success. When Delacroix met him in London in 1825 Lawrence was one of the most famous artists of Europe, the painter of kings and even the Pope, knighted and presiding over the Royal Academy.
Lawrence's Julius Angerstein and His Wife was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1792. In his early work the strong influence of Reynolds is evident. The family portrait - two people, or parents and children seen against the background of a peaceful landscape - was a typical subject of late eighteenth century English painting. Hogarth and Gainsborough excelled in it, and Lawrence continued the tradition. His subjects are of middle class - Angerstein was a wealthy merchant and Lawrence's early patron - but he has given them a harmonious and natural grace by which this painting rivals the elegance of Gainsborough's paintings of the artistrocrcy. 		ANGERSTEIN John Julius
