Robert Kasimir was born in 1914 in Vienna, Austria. His parents, colorist Tanna Hoernes and the prolific etcher Alois Heinrich Luigi Kasimir, were already famous artists, and from an early age he aspired to imitate his father’s realistic style. As a teen he studied under Hans Frank at the Academy of Graphic Art, and seemed poised to follow in his parents footsteps. However, he and his father disagreed when Luigi joined the Nazi Party in 1933, and in 1936 he traveled to the United States to enroll at the Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia, followed by private studies with several professors and artists in the city. After several years of study he refused to return to Europe when World War II broke out and traveled extensively, producing etchings of the different sites he visited across America, Canada, and Mexico. He worked on innovations to the multiple plate color etching process invented by his parents, trying to find new ways of capturing the most realistic shadows and shades. After World War II ended he returned to Europe to care for his ailing father, who had been jailed twice for his activities during the war and was suffering from liver failure. While living with him he made copies of his father’s etchings as well as original pieces, trying to recapture the architectural glory of the devastated region. He and his father fought frequently over the work and his changes to the plate color technique, and until Luigi passed away in 1962 he signed most of his work with pseudonyms, particularly “Franz Otto Robert,” both to distance himself from his father’s deeds and out of respect for his parent’s body of work. From the mid 1960s onward he signed prints “Robert Kasimir” and he remained in Vienna for the rest of his life, producing less and less until he found it too physically difficult to continue the arduous etching process in the early 1990s. Robert died in 2002, and his works are often confused with those of his parents for their level of quality, with all three of them found in private collections throughout Europe.
