What's in a Prague street name

Sitteho was built in 1955.

This is one of those cases where I’d like my (brief) research to tie in with itself a little bit better.

The Pražský uličník – AKA my usual first port of all – says that Jindřich Sitte was the progressive headmaster of a school in Braník. It doesn’t say which school, but it does give Sitte’s years on the planet as being 1888 to 1951.

Websites relating to Police nad Metují – a town of 4,100 people in the Hradec Králové region – say that a Jindřich Sitte was born there in, yes, 1888, and died in, yes, 1951.

They also say he was a landscape painter: here’s one of his pieces, auctioned in 2020: https://www.obrazyvaukci.cz/polozka/jindrich-sitte_venkovske-staveni-58808.

You would assume these are the same person, but you would also assume that there would be at least one search result mentioning both all the paintings and all the schoolmastering. There isn’t. And Czech Wikipedia – AKA my usual second port of call – only mentions him once in passing.

And my fear of spreading false information – a fear that many people in the world could do with catching – means I’m not going to confirm that all these sources are talking about the same man.
