Artists and Engravers: Caspar Merian (1627-1686) was one of the most important German topographical engravers and publishers in the Baroque period. He was the son and pupil of his father Matthaeus Merian the elder (1593-1650) and his first wife Maria Magdalena - de Bry. His brother was Matthaeus the younger. The artist Maria Sibylla Merian (1647-1717) was his half sister from his fathers second wife Johanna Sibylla Catharina.
