Tiberius Dominicus Wocher

Tiberius Dominicus Wocher was a recognised German artist known for his work as a painter and engraver. He served as court painter to the Prince-Bishop of Constance. Between 1767 and 1780, he practised his art in Bern, where he devoted himself primarily to portraiture.
Wocher was also the father of Marquard Wocher, who went on to pursue an artistic career. His work bears witness to a period in which portraiture was a privileged genre, reflecting the aspirations and identities of his contemporaries.
