"The painter and graphic artist Georg Jahn began his training in 1883 at the porcelain factory in Meißen, which sent him to the Dresden Academy as a scholarship holder in 1888. He completed his studies at the Weimar art school. After working as an illustrator and portraitist in Berlin, Leipzig and Munich for a long time, Jahn settled in Loschwitz in 1897, where Max Pietschmann introduced him to etching." B
