Greta Wolf Krakauer (1890-1970) was born in the Austro-Hungarian empire in 1890 (it's unclear whether it was in Vienna or in Witkowitz, but whichever is the case, she grew up in Vienna). She studied painting at a local academy and with artists in Austria and in Germany. She presented at several exhibitions and was close to, among others, Sigmund Freud. She ascended to the Land of Israel in 1924 together with her husband, architect and painter Leopold Krakauer (1890-1954), and they settled in Jerusalem. Krakauer was active in art circles in the Land of Israel, and presented at various exhibitions, including at David's Citadel in 1926. She passed away in Jerusalem.
