Johan Jacob Beidermann
  • Biography

    Johann Jacob Biedermann was a Swiss landscape and veduta painter who lived in various cities including Lausanne, Geneva, Zurich, Paris, and Frankfurt before settling in Constance in 1802. He created a series of prints with views of Swiss towns and villages in 1796 and continued to paint topographically identifiable landscapes throughout his career.

    Biedermann's mature years in Constance were his most creative period, during which he painted this view of Freiburg in 1822. Biedermann's artwork is in harmony with the romantic post-classical art of his time.
