Another piflure of hlmfclf, and one of 

 his wife, were in the coUedion of Sir Peter 

 Lely. More's was three feet eight inches 

 high, by two feet nine wide. King Charles 

 had five pi«5lures painted by , this mailer ; 

 and the duke of Buckingham had a portrait 

 of a man by him. See his catalogue p. 18. 

 A print of him in profile was publifhed 

 by Hondius, and a medal flruck of him 

 in Italy with this legend, Ant. More, pic- 

 tor tranfmontanus. At what time or where 

 he was knighted is uncertain. He paint- 

 ed his mafter John Schorel in 1560., Several 

 of his works are or were at Sir Philip Sy- 

 denham's at Brympton in Somerfetfliire. A 

 very good portrait of Sir Thomas Grefliam 

 is at Houghton. I have a miniature by him, 

 called Thomas duke of Norfolk, engraved 

 among the illuflrious heads ; it belonged to 

 Richardfon the painter, and came out of the 

 Arundelian colledion ; and a half length of 

 a lady in black with a gold chain about her 

 v/aift, which is mentioned in the catalogue
