Thomas Haffner was an artist whose activity is documented as that of a stained-glass painter. In 1578, he became a citizen of Solothurn. His most notable work appears to be a monogrammed roundel made in 1581, depicting Queen Bertha in prayer before Saint Ursus, an emblematic figure in the founding of the church of Solothurn.
