Like many other Hungarian revolutionaries, he spent a period of exile in London. Henszlmann also shared with Eitelberger an interest in art education. Where Eitelberger established his public profile with a series of fierce criticisms of Fer- dinand Waldmüller and the teaching methods in the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, one of Henszlmann’s earliest publications was a critical account of art education in Hungary.9 8 R.
