Mort Künstler – “The Stars and Stripes Are Born” Custom Framed Print 15" x 18"
Product Overview
Offered here is a beautifully custom-framed open edition print titled “The Stars and Stripes Are Born” by acclaimed historical artist Mort Künstler.
This iconic and deeply patriotic composition is inspired by the legendary story of Betsy Ross, depicting a colonial seamstress carefully stitching what would become the Stars and Stripes. Set against the backdrop of the emerging American flag, the scene reflects dedication, craftsmanship, and the birth of a nation.
Künstler’s masterful use of light, texture, and detail transforms this intimate moment into a powerful symbol of American pride and heritage, making it both visually compelling and historically meaningful.
