Denis Aldridge (1898-1985) was born at Syston in Leicestershire. He was educated first at Bilton Grange, near Rugby, then Harrow, where he was considered such a promising pupil in the Art School that his master advised him to make painting his career. Family opposition prevented this until many years later when his friend the equestrian Lionel Edwards persuaded him to return to painting. Aldridge and Edwards had often painted together either in Leicestershire or at the home of the latter in Wiltshire. The influence of the more experienced artist can be clearly seen in his work. Having hunted all his life, first with the Atherstone and Pytchley, and later as secretary to the Quorn Hunt, Aldridge was able to portray meticulously all the details and atmosphere of a hunt. His other main subjects are deer in the Scottish Highlands and on Exmoor, dogs, and equestrian portraits. His work is in the collection of the British Sporting Art Trust.
