In 1900, Dehio started the "Handbuch der deutschen Kunstgeschichte" (Handbook of German Art History), published by Ernst Wasmuth. The project is ongoing and managed by the 'Dehio-Vereinigung', Munich.[1] He gave his name to the Georg Dehio Prize (Georg Dehio Book Prize).[citation needed]
Dehio was born in Reval (Tallinn), then part of the Russian Empire. He died in Tübingen, Germany.
