Pancraz Körle (born October 21, 1823 in Munich ; † April 23, 1875 there ) was a German portrait and genre painter and lithographer .

Born the son of a master baker, Körle attended a Latin school , then Philipp Peter Teutsch's drawing school.

For unclear reasons, he decided not to study at the Royal Academy of Arts in Munich , instead studying portrait painting at the painting school of Joseph Bernhardt .

From 1845 to 1848 he was a pupil of Ferdinand Waldmüller in Vienna, where he also worked as a portrait painter. In 1847 he became a member of the Old Vienna Burschenschaft Germania .

Körle created a series of lithographs depicting revolutionary events in Vienna in 1848. That is why he spent a few months in Dresden .

Back in Munich he devoted himself almost exclusively to genre painting, mostly with scenes from the rococo milieu .
