In 1881 Lloyd served as a house-surgeon at the West London Hospital and St Mark's Hospital, subsequently serving at both hospitals for over thirty years. He was also House-Surgeon to St Peter's Hospital for Stone, an Anaesthetist at Guy's Dental School and a former President of the West London Medico-Chirurgical Society.[1][3][4] On retiring in 1914 he was appointed Honorary Consulting Anaesthetist of the West London Hospital.[1]

In his foreword to the book Sir Edward Poynter says 'Rickard W Lloyd has set forth in an amusing and interesting way the difficulties that beset the cult of old paintings, to say nothing of the snares'.[5]
