Robert Koch was a professor emeritus of art at Princeton. In 1942, Koch earned a master's degree from the University of North Carolina. After Army service from 1942 to 1946, he earned in 1954 a Ph.D. in art from Princeton. He started at Princeton in 1948 as a teaching assistant, and in 1949 he became anassistant director of Princeton University Art Museum. Koch became an assistant professor in 1955 and in 1966 was promoted to full professor. He remained as assistant director of the art museum until 1962, and then was faculty curator of prints. He retired in 1990. A scholar of Northern Renaissance art, Koch received a Fulbright grant in 1956 for study in Belgium, and in 1961 won a grant from the American Council of Learned Societies. He authored several books. As described in Princeton Alumni Weekly's June 2, 2010, article "When Art Historians Went to War," more than a dozen Princetonians helped locate and return Nazi-confiscated art works for the Monuments, Fine Arts, and Archives Service. Koch was one of these "Monuments Men," the last surviving Princetonian among them. In this collection honoring Robert A.
