Herbert Gustave Schmalz (Herbert Gustave Carmichael), English artist. Living from 1856 to 1935, he was a friend of William Holman Hunt and Frederic Leighton.

On a voyage to see how much mileage I can get from the creative ability and eye for images that my family thought was useless. On line art curator, fiction writer and now blogger. Historian's daughter. Follow me . . .even I have no idea where I'm going next.
