Johann Zick
German painter
Quick Summary
Johann Zick was a German painter active in the mid-18th century, known for his work in the Rococo style. He was particularly noted for his frescoes, creating brilliant examples in Bruchsal, Germany, though these are now destroyed. His work at WĆ¼rzburg in 1749 was not entirely successful, and he was later supplanted by Tiepolo. Zick's son, Januarius, also became a painter, initially working in the Rococo style before shifting towards a more classical approach influenced by Anton Raphael Mengs.1
