"Portrait of Edward Grimston" is a painting by the Early Netherlandish artist Petrus Christus, created around 1446. This work is a fine example of the Northern Renaissance portraiture, showcasing Christus's skill in rendering detailed textures and capturing the likeness of his subjects.

Edward Grimston, the sitter, was an English diplomat and courtier. The portrait is notable for its meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the depiction of Grimston's clothing and facial features. The use of light and shadow in the painting demonstrates Christus's mastery of oil painting techniques, which were innovative at the time.

The composition of the portrait is straightforward, focusing on Grimston's upper body and face. He is depicted in three-quarter view, a common pose in portraiture that allows for a more dynamic representation of the subject. Grimston's attire, a dark robe with a fur collar, reflects his status and wealth, while the neutral background emphasizes the subject without distraction.

Christus's work is characterized by its clarity and precision, and this portrait is no exception. The artist's ability to convey the texture of fabrics and the subtle nuances of Grimston's expression contributes to the lifelike quality of the painting. The portrait is also significant for its historical context, providing insight into the fashion and social status of the period.

Currently, the painting is housed in the National Gallery in London, where it remains an important piece within their collection of Northern Renaissance art. It continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical value, offering a glimpse into the world of 15th-century Europe through the eyes of one of its prominent artists.
