Biography Ziller was born in the rural community of Serkowitz in the district of Radebeul in the Kingdom of Saxony. After graduating from the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts in 1858, he went to work for Danish architect Theophilus Hansen. In 1861, Hansen sent him to Athens. In 1872 he was appointed a professor at the Royal School of Arts, now National Technical University of Athens. He was married to a Greek wife, Sofia Doudou. His daughter Iosifina Dimas-Ziller (1885-1965) was an impressionist painter. In 1885, he designed a three-story mansion where his family resided until 1912. Now known as the Ziller mansion, the residence was later acquired by Greek banker Dionysios P. Loverdos (1878–1934). Ziller died in Athens and was buried at the First Cemetery of Athens.
