Philipp Daniel Lippert (born September 2, 1702 in Meißen , Saxony, † March 28, 1785 in Dresden ) was a German draftsman and pictorial artist. At first he was a Beutler , then a glazier and later a master drawing at the porcelain factory in Meißen , from where he came to Dresden in the same capacity. Until his death he was the overseer of the antiquities collection at the Academy of Arts . The acquaintance with the mixtures of the Meissen porcelain mass had induced him to try to imitate old pastes, and he invented his own white mass for this purpose, which he knew how to give an excellent shine in addition to indestructible duration. He published a collection of his (3149) impressions of antique gems in the " Dactyliotheca Universalis " (vol. 1 and 2, with the Latin catalog by Johann Friedrich Christ , Leipzig 1755–1756; vol. 3 with index by Heyne; German, Vol. 1 and 2 by Thierbach 1767 and the supplement 1768). In 1805 it was partially copied by GB Rabenstein.
