Claus Sievert, (1949-2009), a German-born American printmaker and illustrator, was best known for his nature prints. His works are in the collections of the Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco and the Oakland Museum of California.

A printmaker who created limited-edition etchings from copper plates and a hand-turned press, Sievert's work won awards, illustrated a children's book by Leo Tolstoy, was commissioned by the Sierra Club and Golden Gate National Recreation Area to illustrate their publications, and he had his images published in several calendars.

His art was also featured in Ansel Adams Gallery, Muir Woods and the Nature Company. His work was also shown at the Auburn Arts Building and in several regional and national festivals.
