Gabor Peterdi, painter, printmaker, author and educator, was born on September 17, 1915, in Pestujhely, Hungary and began his art studies at the Hungarian Academy in 1929 at the age of fourteen. His first solo exhibition was mounted at the Ernst Museum in 1930 and that same year Peterdi won a Prix de Rome scholarship for painting and continued his studies at the Academia delle Belle Arti. The following year he went to Paris where he attended the Academie Julian and the Academie Scandinavien. He joined Hayter’s Atelier 17 in Paris in 1933 where he explored the techniques of engraving.
