Johann Conrad Dorner, an Austrian painter, was born at Egg, near Bregenz, in 1810, and studied historical painting under Cornelius. In 1836 he went to St. Petersburg, and there painted many portraits and altarpieces. He afterwards returned to Munich, and in 1860 went to Rome, where he died in 1866. He executed his best works whilst in Rome; they are mostly of a religious character. A 'Madonna and Child, with St. John,' and the 'Infant Christ' are in the Pinakothek at Munich.
