Cuthbert Edward Bradley (1861-1941) was an English painter, sporting writer and magazine illustrator.
Bradley was the eldest son of The Reverend Edward Bradley (1827-1889), who wrote under the pen name 'Cuthbert Bede'. He graduated from King's College London, where he studied architecture.
He worked as a sporting journalist for 'The Field' and as a magazine illustrator for 'Vanity Fair'. He also wrote books about fox-hunting including 'The Foxhound of the Twentieth Century' (1914), 'Fox-hunting from Shire to Shire' (1912), and 'Good Sport seen with some Famous Packs' (1910). His paintings depicted scenes of fox hunting and polo.
His 1901 painting 'King's Messenger' can be seen at Penrhyn Castle. Other paintings are kept by Leicestershire County Council's Museums Service.
He lived at The Lodge in Folkingham, Lincolnshire, where he died on 25 November 1941. He was buried at St. Andrew's Church, Folkingham, where he had been church warden for the previous 42 years.
