Johann Balthasar Bullinger (1770)Drawing by Johann Balthasar Bullinger showing the Bauschänzli bulwark in 1770.
Bullinger was born in Langnau am Albis, the son of Heinrich Bullinger, a clergyman.[1]
He was a pupil of Johann Melchior Füssli [de] and then of Johannes Simler, with whom he studied both painting and engraving.[1] He then went to Venice, carrying a letter of introduction to Anton Maria Zanetti, who introduced him to Tiepolo, in whose studio he worked from 1732 until 1735.[1] He first attempted historical painting, but then turned to landscapes,[2] painting his first works in that genre in Steinbrugg in 1736. In 1737 he worked as a portraitist in Neuenburg. He spent the years between 1738 and 1741 in Amsterdam,[1] where his work came under the influence of Dutch artists such as Both and Berchem.[2] Bullinger also created the ceiling and wall paintings of the Zunfthaus zur Meisen, a guild house and present faience museum that was built at the Münsterhof plaza in Zürich in 1757.
