This portrait is listed in the Collection register as an 'unknown young man'. Likely, it is Reverend John Mason; the similarity between the sitter and Mason is striking (compare 1993/1513). Mason became Book Steward at the Book Room, the Methodist Publishing House in City Road, in 1827. For further information about him, refer to 1993/1513.
