Herbert GEORGE
The artist lived at Hindhead and Gomshall, Surrey, and studied at South Kensington, Herkomer's at Bushey and Newlyn, under Stanhope FORBES, and in St Ives under John Noble BARLOW.
He was working in the Lamorna valley in 1905, and in 1906 exhibited and sold Landscape with Sheep at NAG's Summer exhibition.
His sending-in addresses are listed as Hindhead, Surrey (1906), London (1915) and Gomshall, Surrey (1926).
Recent correspondence (2012) reveals two watercolours indicating places where Herbert George painted, being Aston Tirrold, Berkshire [now in Oxfordshire] and the Cole Kitchen Farm, Gomshall.
