The "Portrait of Edward Grimston" is a notable work painted in 1446 by the Early Netherlandish artist Petrus Christus. This portrait is a significant example of 15th-century portraiture and showcases the meticulous detail and realism characteristic of Christus's style. Petrus Christus, a prominent figure in the Northern Renaissance, was known for his ability to capture the essence of his subjects with remarkable precision and depth.

Edward Grimston, the subject of the portrait, was an English diplomat and a member of the influential Grimston family. His role in the political and social spheres of his time made him a figure of considerable importance, and his portrait reflects his status and personality. The painting is executed in oil on oak panel, a common medium for the period, which allowed for fine detail and a rich, luminous quality in the depiction of textures and fabrics.

In the portrait, Grimston is presented with a solemn and dignified expression, dressed in contemporary attire that signifies his social standing. The attention to detail in the rendering of his clothing, the texture of his skin, and the intricate background elements exemplifies Christus's skill and the broader trends in Northern Renaissance art. The background of the portrait is relatively plain, which serves to focus attention on the sitter's face and attire, emphasizing his presence and character.

The "Portrait of Edward Grimston" is housed in the National Gallery in London, where it remains an important piece within their collection of Early Netherlandish paintings. The work not only provides insight into the life and status of Edward Grimston but also serves as an exemplary piece of Petrus Christus's oeuvre, highlighting his contributions to the development of portrait painting in the 15th century. Through this portrait, viewers can appreciate the intricate interplay of light, texture, and form that defines Christus's work and the broader artistic movements of his time.
