John Julius Angerstein
John Julius Angerstein (1732 – 22 January 1823)〔 a London businessman and Lloyd's under-writer, was a patron of the fine arts and a collector. It was the prospect that his collection of paintings was about to be sold by his estate in 1824 that galvanised the founding of the British National Gallery.〔W. G. Constable, "The Foundation of the National Gallery", ''The Burlington Magazine'' 44 (April 1924:158–159, 162–167, 170–72).〕
==Parentage==
John Julius Angerstein was born in 1732 in St Petersburg, Russia. It has wrongly been suggested that he was a natural son of empress Catherine II or of Elizabeth, Empress of Russia. Family tradition holds that his true parents were empress Anna of Russia and the London businessman, Andrew Poulett Thompson; his first position after arriving in London at the age of fifteen was in Thompson's counting-house.
