Samuel Hieronymus Grimm (18 January 1733 – 14 April 1794)[1] was an 18th-century Swiss landscape artist who worked in oils (until 1764), watercolours, and pen and ink media.

Grimm specialised in documenting historical scenes and events; he also illustrated books such as Gilbert White's The Natural History and Antiquities of Selborne.

[2] Aberli specialised in topographical scenery, particularly of the Swiss Alps and he also patented a technique using faint outline etching for the mass production of these views.

Surviving work shows that he made sketching trips in the Bois de Boulogne, Normandy and Picardy.

He also undertook work for the naturalist Gilbert White, illustrating his The Natural History and Antiquities of Selborne,[7] and Sir William Burrell.
