Johann Conrad Gessner was a Swiss battle painter and lithographer.
He studied painting first with his artist father Solomon Gessner (1730-1788), then at the Dresden Art Academy, before traveling to Naples and Rome. Back in Germany, Gessner became known for his equestrian and battle scenes, and his drawings and watercolors already had features of early Romanticism.
