The result is not true unless you mean doubly-periodic instead of periodic.

If that is what you mean, then here is a hint:

  1. A continuous function on a compact subset of $\mathbb{C}$ is bounded (and attains its minimum and maximum).

  2. The values of a doubly-periodic function are all equal to the values on some initial parallelogram containing the origin.
