He was personal physician to a number of monarchs, including the Prussian king Frederick the Great. He was knighted by Catherine II of Russia in 1786.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the essence of Johann Zimmermann, a renowned Swiss naturalist and physician from the 18th century. With his piercing gaze and distinguished features, Zimmermann's portrait exudes wisdom and intellect. Having obtained his medical degree in Germany, he became not only a respected doctor but also an accomplished writer on pharmacology. However, it was Zimmermann's philosophical works that truly captivated audiences during his time. His influential writings on solitude and national pride resonated with many individuals seeking deeper understanding of themselves and their place in society. This intellectual prowess led him to serve as personal physician to several monarchs, including Frederick the Great of Prussia. Zimmermann's contributions were widely recognized beyond Europe as well. In 1786, Catherine II of Russia knighted him for his exceptional achievements in medicine and philosophy. This accolade further solidified his status as a prominent figure within both scientific and intellectual circles. The monochrome artwork beautifully showcases Zimmermann's dedication to advancing knowledge in various fields while highlighting his role as a royal physician. As we admire this historical print today, we are reminded of the remarkable impact that individuals like Johann Zimmermann have had on shaping our understanding of medicine, science, philosophy, and human nature itself.
