Caspar Jacobsz Philips

Caspar Jacobsz Philips (1732 – 1789), was an 18th-century engraver and architectural historian of the Dutch Republic.

He was the son of Johan Jacob Philips who married to Rebecca Sieverts in 1730.

He was baptized in the Lutheran church in Amsterdam and became the pupil of his uncle, Jan Caspar Philips.

He is most known for his drawings of Amsterdam buildings in his Grachtenboek, but there are serious doubts about his involvement.
