The War Office British Empire Exhibition in Wembley contained thirty dioramas of battles in British history painted by Thomas Ivester-Lloyd. The majority of his work was sporting and he illustrated the British section of sir John Buchanan Jardine’s Hounds of the World. He spent most of his life in and around Sherington, where he became Master of the Sherington Foot Beagles as well as being a pillar in the community. He illustrated a number of books and became very famous for his hound sketches. Many thought his horse portraiture was some of the of his time. He painted a series of beagling pictures and a variety of hunting scenes, working both in oil and watercolour. The majority of Thomas Ivester-Lloyd’s work was serious but he also made some humurous illustrations. He died in 1942.
