ZILLER Leopold (1859-1910) German painter (19th-20th century) Landscapes, seascapes Architectural views: Venice, Bosphorus Leopold Ziller was an accomplished 19th century artist known as follower of Felix Ziem. He specialized in Venetian and Bosphorus scenes. Although a great deal of his work was done towards the end of the 19th century, he continued working until 1930 and was therefore a real bridge builder between the two centuries. Ziller lived and painted most of his life in France and Italy. His style is distinguished and talented, and he did not exhibit at the major salons. Bibliography: Dictionary of Artists E.
