His art training was fairly
conventional, including studying at South
Kensington and the Royal Academy Schools,
and then abroad in Antwerp. Herbert Gustave Schmalz knew
Leighton, living near him in Kensington, and
marrying the sister of Dorothy Dene, who was
one of Leighton’s favorite models. Herbert Gustave Schmalz developed a style influenced by the Pre-Raphaelites, but more soft, showing single figures or groups, over-pious religious scenes and sentimental lovers, and some topographical paintings. Herbert Gustave Schmalz artist also produced Orientalist paintings featuring girls with pots, camels etc somewhat akin to work by Good all. All of this was well calculated to impress the Victorian public, and much of Herbert Gustave Schmalz paintings were widely reproduced in magazines and as prints. |
