Born January 11, 1887 in Liptovký Mikuláš, Czechoslovakia; died October 1944 in Auschwitz, Poland.

<h1> Background</h1> Moritz Müller (Mueller) was born: January 11, 1887, he was sent to Theresienstadt from Prague with Transport Dh 424, July 8, 1943 and was later transported to Birkenau,

Transport Em 535, October 1, 1944.

His last address before deportation: Tomekstrasse 26, Prage XI

Müller was born the youngest of four children.  Shortly after his birth the family moved to Prague, where Müller grew up.  He started taking private classes in drawing during his childhood and, showing a great talent later, went on to the Prague Academy of Fine Arts.  While he did not paint for a living, he was constantly in contact with the art world.  He opened a private school for drawing in Prague, enrolled in the Mánes Artists Association, and after World War I established an auction hall for arts in one of Prague’s liveliest cultural and social centers. Müller is recorded as being popular and well liked among both Czech and German art collectors as well as among the artists themselves.  After the Nazi occupation, his auction hall was robbed and closed. He then worked for the Prague Jewish Community appraising the art objects from the confiscated Jewish properties.

<h1> Deportation to Theresienstadt</h1> On July 8, 1943, Müller (Mueller) was deported as “passenger” 424 on Transport Dh to Theresienstadt, where he spent the last fourteen months of his life. 

<h1> Work Assignment at Theresienstadt</h1> Despite his background of a professional artist, he did not follow the path of other artists in the Ghetto. Moritz Mueller did not find himself at art workshops or in the Technical Department with many of the other artists. He worked as the orderly at the Urological ward supervised by Dr. Kurt Weiner. This ward was located in the Engineers barracks.

<h1> Art Produced at Theresienstadt</h1> Many of Müller’s (Mueller) at least five hundred works were portraits of the ill, crippled and dying-- some beauteous, some witty, some shocking.  During his first few months at Theresienstadt, Müller drew at least one picture a day, often more.  As his internment continued, however, he drew less, each picture taking more time.  He dated every picture he made.

<h1> Deportation to Auschwitz</h1> On October 1, 1944, as a “passenger” No. 535 of the Transport Em, a month and a half after he has completed his last picture, dated August 16, 1944, Moritz Müller (Mueller) was deported to Auschwitz, where he was apparently gassed on October 3, 1944, the day the transport arrived.
