Jacob Sturm
Jacob Sturm (21 March 1771 – 28 November 1848) was a leading engraver of entomological and botanical scientific publications in Germany at the end of the 18th and beginning of the 19th century. He was born and lived in Nuremberg and was the only son of engraver Johann Georg Sturm (1742-1793), who trained him in drawing and copperplate engraving. Sturm became a celebrated insect collector and founded the Nuremberg Society for Natural History. His entomological and botanical plates are very accurately drawn and show minute details and enjoyed a great popularity among naturalists. As most of his works were published in a small format, they could be purchased by a larger public and they were very popular. During this period, Nuremberg was the centre of natural history book production in Germany. "The book ''Deutschlands Flora'',lit.: ''Germany's flora in pictures from nature with descriptions. Nuremberg, printed at the expense of the author'' 1798–1862. 163 parts (in 136 vol ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
