Malerische Reise nach Heidelberg: zehn Blätter
Malerische Reise nach Heidelberg is a set of ten hand-coloured aquatint views of Heidelberg published in 1824, drawn by Johann Jakob Meyer with plates by Franz Hegi, Johann Hürlimann and Conrad Caspar Rordorf, likely for travellers and armchair tourists. The plates show the castle, the Neckar valley and town from high viewpoints, with soft washes of sky and foliage that a designer could use for romantic landscape palettes and tinted topographic scenes.
