BIO:
Schmidt is originally from Berlin, in the province of Brandenburg. He studied at the Berlin University of the Arts with Carl Joseph Begas and Wilhelm Schirmer.
He was largely influenced in his choice of subjects and their development by his familiarity with Egypt and Greece, and paid little attention to German scenes until 1854, after which he treated them with rare poetic sensitivity.
In 1868, he became a teacher at the Weimar School of Art, and in 1872, he went to the Königsberg Academy.
His main works are the eastern frescoes of the Berlin Museum, 'Wood and Mountain' (1868) and 'View of the Spree' (1877), both in the Berlin National Gallery. He wrote 'Die Aquarellmalerei'.
He died in Königsberg.
