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
1992

Mort Künstler chats with George Orrison and Kaye Bayliss of Applegate Art in Winchester, VA. They had come to New York City for the opening of an exhibition in celebration of the publication of Künstler’s book, Images of the Civil War with text by James M. McPherson. The event took place at Hammer Galleries, on November 16, 1992, and also marked the 15th anniversary of Künstler’s first one-man show at the gallery.
His work is so exciting – people can hardly wait to see what he will paint next. Some of our customers reserve his works a year in advance without even knowing what he’s going to paint. His choice of subject matter is unique, he’s devoted to authenticity, and all the elements of his art are just exquisite. He is simply the best.
