Robert Cauer the Younger (3 January 1863, Bad Kreuznach - 28 February 1947, Darmstadt) [1] was a German sculptor.
His father was the sculptor, Karl Cauer, who gave him his first lessons. Three of his brothers, Emil, Ludwig and Hugo (1864-1918) also became sculptors. In 1880, he made an extended study trip to Rome. From 1887 to 1889, he worked at the Cauer family studios there. By 1889, he was in the United States, in St. Louis, where his family had professional connections. There, he created portrait busts.
He went back to Germany and, in 1902, was married. That same year, he created one of his largest works, the monument "Michel Mort und die Schlacht von Sprendlingen" (Michel Mort and the Battle of Sprendlingen ) in Bad Kreuznach. After another stay in St. Louis in 1904, he settled in Darmstadt and worked as a freelance sculptor; producing busts and reliefs for public and private clients, many with religious or symbolic themes.
In 1916, he was awarded the title of Professor by Grand Duke Ernst Ludwig, and became an honorary citizen of Hesse the following year.
A street in Darmstadt is named after him.
