Life
After an apprenticeship as a decorative painter at Wirth & Bay from 1886 to 1889, Kayser attended the Munich School of Applied Arts and the Dresden School of Applied Arts . From 1890 he then worked as a decorative painter in Hamburg for four years.
In 1902 he married Melanie Hertz , a daughter of the physicist Heinrich Hertz , with whom he had two daughters.
From 1906 to 1939 he taught, interrupted by his participation in the First World War as a soldier in Schleswig (1916–1918), at the Gerda Koppels art school , after giving private painting lessons for over five years. Due to the war damage in World War II, he left his hometown in 1941 and moved to Donaueschingen, where he died a year later.
Kayser was a founding member of the Hamburg Art Club from 1897 and the Hamburg Secession, as well as a member of the Hamburg Art Association and the Altona Art Association . His style was decisively influenced by Albert Marquet , whom he had met in 1909 and whom he visited again in 1933 on a trip to Paris. His works include two large paintings created to furnish the ocean liner Imperator .
