1861 - 1934

Life and Artistic Journey

Born in Guntersblum, Germany, Carl Küstner began his life as the son of a farmer and a housewife. After attending school in Guntersblum and Worms, he initially pursued a commercial apprenticeship. His path shifted when he was called for military service in Munich; being classified as unfit for service, he discovered a passion for nature and painting. Following a period in Geneva where he began creating his first works, he returned to Munich in 1884. There, he became a student of the landscape painter Professor August Fink for six years, a period during which he developed his own style. In 1900, he married Tusnelda Fink, and they had a daughter. By 1927, he was appointed a professor of fine arts.
