Jorge Henrique Papf


Jorge Henrique Papf was a German-Brazilian photographer and painter who lived during the second half of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. Considered to be an excellent photographer of landscapes, he took the landscapes that illustrated the Guia de Petrópolis of 1885, and also photographed a panorama with a circular perspective of 360° of the city of Petrópolis, in 1898. He inherited the job of his father, Karl Ernst Papf, who came to Brazil in 1867 together with the photographer Alberto Henschel.
