Johannes Kölla

Johannes Kölla was a Swiss painter, draughtsman and engraver of the Old Master period.

In the early 1760s Kölla, as a self-taught artist, painted his first landscapes of Lake Zurich and portraits of his relatives, and perfected his skills under Johann Caspar Füssli (1706-1782). Kölla was commissioned to paint portraits and also created genre paintings in the Dutch style, choosing subjects from the countryside and the lives of artisans.
