		He copied from paintings by Philips Wouwerman, Abraham Bloemaert, Georg Philipp Rugendas I and Salomon van Ruysdael, adopting the dark-toned realism of the latter as an effective contrast to the picturesque chiaroscuro of the groups of horsemen in such paintings as Mounted Battle (1786; Zurich, Ksthaus).
		In the watercolour landscape Schloss Nossen (1785–6; Zurich, Ksthaus) Gessner’s style develops beyond that of Zingg, with his lively use of line reinforcing the strong sense of mood conveyed by the brushwork.
