After touring Europe extensively, Seiler left Germany in 1928. He has exhibited in Rome and Paris, in Jerusalem and Teheran, in San Francisco and Mexico City, to mention only a few points in his globe circling travels. His work has been recived enthusiastically everywhere and acclaimed in the highest circles by maharajahs in India and by princes and leading officials in many other countries. Seiler's second sojourn in Japan turned out to be a permanent one. After the end of World War II the highly versatile artist instructed American Army College with outstanding success. Sailer's etchings have won him a wide reputation. As the creator of numerous etchings of picturesque Japanese and Korean subjects he has captured the quaintness of the East in the distinctive copperplate medium of the West with superb draftsmanship, to produce an art of rare beauty.
