Werner was born in 1843 in Frankfurt (Oder) in the Prussian Province of Brandenburg, the son of a carpenter. His family originally came from East Prussia and was ennobled (von) in 1701.
He first studied painting at the Berlin Academy, pursued his studies at Carlsruhe, and, having won a travelling scholarship upon the exhibition of his early works, he visited Paris in 1867, and afterwards Italy, where he remained for some time.
On his return he received several state commissions, and on the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War in 1870 he was sent with the staff of the third corps d'armee, and stayed in France-till the close of the campaign.
In 1873 he was appointed professor at the Berlin Academy, of which he afterwards became director. Among his more important works must be named "The Capitulation of Sedan, " "Proclamation of the German Empire at Versailles, " "Moltke before Paris, " "Moltke at Versailles, " "The Meeting of Bismarck and Napoleon III, " "Christ and the Tribute Money, " "William I visiting the Tombs, " "The Congress of Berlin, " and some decorations executed in mosaic for the Triumphal Arch at Berlin.
Von Werner's work is chiefly interesting for the historic value of his pictures of the events of the Franco-German War.
In 1873 Werner was appointed professor at the Berlin Academy. His career reached its peak when he became, in 1875, director of the Academy. After 1888, while in William II's court, Werner tutored the emperor to become a painter. In 1909, he succeeded Hugo von Tschudi in directing the Nationalgalerie in Berlin.

Quotes from others about the person
Hans Gude: "Even then [Werner] manifested a versatile and rich talent, besides incredible assiduity and capacity for work; he was one of the best on our side. He was also tireless in inventing all sorts of high jinks to amuse us on the Sunday afternoons when the entire group assembled. "
When he returned to Berlin, now the German capital, and married Malwine Schroedter, daughter of his tutor Adolf Schroedter in August 1871.
