Vaso Katraki (1914 – 1988) was a Greek painter and engraver. She was known for her passionate depictions of the sufferings of the Greek people during and after World War II. In 1967 she was exiled to a barren island by the military junta on the day it took power. She started with wood engraving, then developed an original and very unusual technique of sandstone engraving.
