Thomas Manby||| Thomas Manby (fl. 1670–1690), landscape-painter, is spoken of as 'a good English landskip-painter, who had been several times in Italy, and consequently painted much after the Italian manner'. From Vertue's extracts from the diaries of Mr. Beale, the husband of Mary Beale, it appears that Manby was employed to paint in landscapes in the background of the portraits by her and probably other painters af the time. Manby brought from Italy a large collection of pictures, which were sold at the Banqueting House in Whitehall about 1680. ^{[DNB 1][DNB 2][1]}
