Born in Shanghai, Sir Henry Keswick was Director and Chairman of Jardine Matheson over a period of 45 years. He was a visionary who was responsible for the transformative growth of the company particularly in mainland China, South East Asia and Hong Kong.
Sir Henry was Chair of the National Portrait Gallery from 1994 to 2001 and Owner of The Spectator from 1975 to 1980.
He was supporter of the Monteverdi Choir and Orchestras for several years, for which we are most grateful, and he will be much missed. Our thoughts and condolences are with his friends and family at this difficult time.
