Kunstler, Mort (Mort Kunstler)
Art "THE GUNS OF AUTUMN" Lee in Charleston December 15 1861
Gettysburg Penn: Mort Künstler Mort Kunstler and American Print Gallery 2000. Print. Fine. Mort Künstler. Offset lithographic print by Mort Kunstler. A Fine print in Fine publisher's original folder. Oblong Print; Image Size: 17 3/4" x 24 1/2"; Overall Size: 18 3/4" x 31". A Fine print in Fine publisher's folder. Note: additional shipping charges for international and expedited orders only. Throughout their new nation Southerners prepared for serious warfare. Gone now were hopes for a quick and bloodless victory: More than 3500 Americans had been killed or wounded at First Manassas. Gone too were hopes of Southern invincibility: Federal forces had occupied Port Royal on the South Carolina coast and were threatening other coastal points. Northern invasion seemed imminent on several fronts - and Southerners now hurriedly strengthened the Confederacy's defenses. In most places this autumn the guns were silent as both Southern and Northern forces hastily mustered the resources for the firestorm to come. In the autumn of 1861 General Robert E. Lee was dispatched to South Carolina to command the Department of South Carolina Georgia and Florida. A gifted military engineer he developed a defensive strategy organized the region's resources and directed placement of troops and artillery. Lee's wisdom was especially welcome in Charleston - which state and local leaders knew was a major Federal target. His efforts would prove to be crucially important to the Southern coast: In most places Lee's line of defense would endure for most of the war. - Mort Kunstler .

Kunstler, Mort
The Lincoln-Douglas Debates
Des Plaines: Edwin M. Knowles China Company Part of The Bradford Exchange 1987. Limited Edition Number 3355A. Other collectible plate with original box. Very good/Accompanying box has some wear but is in good condition. This is the third issue in the Lincoln Man of America series by one of America's foremost historical artists Mort Kunslter. This 8.5 inch diameter plate with a striking colorful image was produced by the Edwin M. Knowles China Company in an edition limited to 150 firing days. Comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and descriptive brochure. Morton Künstler born August 28 1927 is known for his paintings of historical events especially of the American Civil War. Künstler in 1965 was commissioned by National Geographic to create what became his first historic painting. He also created posters for movies such as The Poseidon Adventure and The Taking of Pelham One Two Three. By the 1970s he was painting covers for Newsweek and other magazines with much of his work during being in advertising art. In 1977 his first major gallery exhibition brought new attention to his talents as a historical artist. By the 1980s he was acclaimed as America's foremost Civil War artist and would eventually create over 350 Civil War paintings alone. Besides his Civil War paintings he created historical art of the American Revolution through the Korean and Vietnam wars along with paintings of World War II. His artistic output places him at the forefront of contemporary historical realism. NASA made him their official artist for the Space Shuttle Columbia. In 1993 a one-hour television special Images of the Civil War - The Paintings of Mort Künstler was shown on the A&E TV network. He has received numerous honors and awards and at least nine books are dedicated to featuring his artwork. Edwin M. Knowles was the son of Isaac Watt Knowles a founder and partner in Knowles Taylor and Knowles Company. He was educated at Allegheny College and Harvard University. In 1890 Knowles assumed the management of the Potters Supply Company located in East Liverpool Ohio. In 1900 Edwin M. Knowles founded the Edwin M. Knowles China Company. The company’s offices were located in East Liverpool Ohio. The plant was in Chester West Virginia. Knowles’ goal was to manufacture the highest quality semi-vitreous china ware. Products included dinnerware kitchenware specialties and toilet wares. In 1913 the company opened a new plant in Newell West Virginia. In the early 1930s Knowles employed over 700 workers. The firm consolidated production at its Newell facility selling the Chester plant to Harker Pottery. In 1938 Vincent Broomhall designed a line of kitchen accessories that were available in seven different colors. Knowles continued to introduce new lines including Potomac 1941 Twin Oaks 1953-1954 Four Seasons 1959 and Street Song 1959. Each line featured dozens of patterns. Edward M. Knowles died on February 9 1941. Frederick Blackmore Lawrence became president. When Lawrence died in 1948 William A. Harris Jr. succeeded him. He remained as president until Knowles ceased operations in 1962.
