Benedikt Kögl, otherwise Benno Kögl[1] (12 March 1892, Greding – 29 April 1973, Munich)[2] was a German painter. He was principally a miniaturist working in oil; his main subjects were still lifes and cats (from which he gained the nickname Katzen-Kögl or 'Cat Kögl').[3] Some of his works are less than one inch square. He was a student of Hans von Hayek (1869-1940) and Philipp Röth (1841-1921).[4]
His work is actively traded today in several galleries in the US and Germany.
