Friedrich Guimpel (1 August 1774 in Berlin – 17 January 1839) was a German engraver and botanical illustrator.
An artist and professor at the Berlin Academy of Arts, he collaborated with several renowned botanists in the creation of illustrated botanical works.[1][2]
The species Berberis guimpelii was named in his honor by Karl Koch and Carl David Bouché. It is synonymous with Berberis chinensis.[3]
