Morton Künstler 1927 - 2025
Our 97-year-old artist, father, friend, and colleague passed away on February 2, 2025. He had a prolific life and career, yet happily said many times “I never worked a day in my life!” He is missed by all who were lucky to have known him and his paintings.
We greatly appreciate the outpouring of condolence messages and notes. Thank you.
History in Photos
1999
Governor James and Roxane Gilmore of Virginia stand next to the painting Candlelight and Roses with Deborah and Mort Künstler. The occasion was a dinner in honor of the artist at the Governor’s Mansion in Richmond. At that time Governor Gilmore officially declared March 18, 1999 Mort Künstler Day in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
For an artist who wants to paint events never before captured on canvas, can anything be more exciting than discovering a five-year period of intensely dramatic history, for which great research has been done but little art created? This is the Civil War for Mort Künstler.
