Jeno Racz's paintings are of suburbs of Pécs between WWI and WWII Although he mainly painted in his spare time, he was not a real Sunday painter. He became a regular exhibiting artist at the Pécs Artists and Friends exhibition of due to the technical quality of his works and not the subject of Pécs.

His work is linked in many ways to the town's cultural life. In addition to being a painter in Pécs, he was an officer at the Infantry Regiment of Pécs during World War II .As a teacher he also worked as a teacher in schools in Pécs. His art is an exemplary way of life of a "little man" that deserves to escape from oblivion.
