He executed numerous etchings (e.g. Ponto Lupo in Tivoli, 1815), engravings and paintings from his drawings and watercolours of the Italian landscape, and many of these were published in such folios as Arriccia (1820), Tivoli (1822), Etna (1824) and Vesuv (1832). In them he adopted a classical style of landscape somewhat influenced by the work of Johann Christian Reinhart. It published numerous collections of steel-engravings produced under Frommel's direction, including 30 Ansichten Griechenlands (1830), Carl Frommels pittoreskes Italien (1840) and Baden und seine Umgebungen (1843).
