These
paintings are some of the works of the painter and illustrator Georg von
Peschke (1900-1959). Peschke was born in the Austro-Hungarian Empire
(present-day Croatia), and in the 1920s moved to Greece, where he met his wife,
Faltaina, a native of Skyros (Skyros became a frequent subject of his art). His
paintings, drawings, and prints were featured in several exhibitions in Athens
in the 1920s and 1930s, and he was a member of the League of Greek Artists.
Peschke also found employment as an archaeological illustrator and architect
for American archaeological projects in Greece, and his illustrations are
featured in many excavation reports.
