Possibly a tycoon or a politician if he's wearing a top hat. Other than that, I'm afraid I don't know.

The little gentleman in black velvet is a mole. William III of England, II of Scotland (William of Orange) died of complications following a horse riding accident in which, it was believed, his horse stumbled over a mole's burrow. Following this, Jacobites would toast the health of the "little gentleman in black velvet" who brought about the death of their enemy.
