- 'Stanford University, the Quad', Palo Alto, Vienna Academy, Metropolitan MuseumBy Luigi KasimirLocated in Santa Cruz, CASigned lower center, in pencil, 'Luigi Kasimir' (Austro-Hungarian, 1881-1962), and with title and date, 'Palo Alto, 1931'. at lower right, Paper dimensions: 12.25 x 16 inches. N.B. This is an original etching by Luigi Kasimir and is hand-signed by the artist. The notable etcher and painter, Luigi Kasimir, attended the Vienna Academy of Art where he studied under William Unger, who introduced him to colored etching. Kasimir was influenced by Anders Zorn and Karl von Kalckreuth and he furthered his studies with Sigmund L'Allemand. A pioneer in the technique of hand-colored etching, Kasimir began exhibiting in 1905 and received immediate critical recognition. Starting with a sketch, usually in pastel, Kasimir would transfer the design, by hand, onto as many as six plates, applying the color by hand to each plate. Luigi Kasimir's work is held in private and public collections throughout the world including in the permanent collections of New York's Metropolitan Museum and Smithsonian Museum, among others.
