Plate 6: Simmering - Schwechat. Gregosch taught at the Budapest School of Arts and Crafts and was one of the illustrators of "Die Österreichisch-Ungarische Monarchie in Wort und Bild" (cf. Th./B.).

Extremely rare, especially when complete and in colour: the copy in the Wienmuseum and that in the Eckl collection are both uncoloured.
