Biography – Edward Seago

Edward Seago was born in Norfolk in 1910. He painted, illustrated and wrote and was a student at the Norwich School. Edward Seago won an award from the Royal Drawing Society after being mainly self taught. During his learning he had tutoring from Sir Alfred Munnings and Bertram Priestman.

When he was in the Royal Engineers, during the Second World War, he was involved in the development of  camouflage. In 1956 Edward Seago was invited on a Royal tour on the Royal Yacht Britannia to the Antarctic.  He designed, for the Queen Elizabeth II state limousine, a car mascot of St George and the Dragon.
