Jacob (Johann Christian Jacob) Friedrich (13.October.1746 Friedricchstadt near Dresden - ibidem 3. June 1813) was a flower- and landscape painter. He was also famous for his copper etchings. Here we are interested in the latter, because Friedrich has etched a series of Roman architecture after Giovanni Battista in a quart format. The all-comprehensive artists lexicon “Thieme/Becker" gives only 15 etchings of such etchings, illustrating Saxonian architect Christian Traugott Weinlig's “Briefe über Rom" (Letters about Rome) which were written between 1767 and 1769, but not published until 1781 to 1787.
