Herman Grimm was een Duitse academicus en schrijver, bekend als een vooraanstaand kunsthistoricus van zijn tijd. Zijn werk werd gekenmerkt door een romantische en gepassioneerde benadering, waarbij hij zich vaak concentreerde op de biografieën van de "Grote Meesters" zoals Rafaël en Michelangelo, en deze plaatste in een bredere culturele context. Grimm beschouwde zichzelf als de intellectuele opvolger van Goethe, en zijn interpretaties van kunstwerken en stijlen vormden diepgaand de Duitse en continentale burgerlijke smaak. Hoewel zijn latere geschriften mogelijk zijn verdrongen door nieuwer onderzoek, blijft Grimm's invloed op de ontwikkeling van de kunstgeschiedenis, inclusief zijn vroege interesse in receptietheorie en het gebruik van reproductieve beelden, aanzienlijk.
