Sir Thomas Le Strange (1494–1545) was appointed High Sheriff of Norfolk, his home county, in 1532. In 1536, prior to the dissolution of the monasteries, he investigated the revenues of Walsingham Abbey with Sir Richard Southwell, whom Holbein also drew and painted. His brother-in-law was Thomas Vaux, 2nd Baron Vaux of Harrowden, whom Holbein drew twice, with long hair and with short hair. The drawing is similar to a painting of Le Strange at the Kimbell Art Museum, Fort Worth, Texas.
