August Köllner

August Köllner (German: Augustus Koellner or Köllner), full name Augustus Theorore Frederick Adam Kollner, was a German and American painter and illustrator, engraver, and publisher.

August Köllner studied painting and lithography in Frankfurt, moved from Germany to the United States, and settled in Philadelphia in 1839. He soon took a job with Huddy and Duvall's U.S. Military Journal. In the 1840s he worked on a series of watercolors, fifty-four of which were published in 1848-51 by the Paris firm of Goupil, Vibert & Co. under the title Views of American Cities.

August Köllner worked on book illustrations, designed various merchandise, and worked for other lithographic firms in Philadelphia until he went into business for himself as a printer and lithographer. He exhibited his drawings at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia in 1865 and 1868.
