Anton Vorauer
Anton Vorauer was an art professor at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. While painting at the Parthenon during the Nazi invasion of Greece, he was drafted involuntarily as a translator of Greek for the German Army. After the war, wife Annie emigrated to the USA where he earned many lucrative commissions as an itinerant portrait painter working in oil. Vorauer’s works are in private collections throughout Europe as well as New York, Middle Tennessee and North Carolina. Among his patrons include Prentice Cooper (1895–1969), former Governor of Tennessee. He died in February 1985 in Greensboro, North Carolina.
