Also known as
Sebille, Albert
Albert Sébille (1874–1953) was a French marine painter, watercolorist, draftsman, and poster artist. Authority records identify him especially with maritime imagery, while IdRef records that he was appointed an official painter of the French Navy in 1907. His documented output spans fine art and applied graphic work: marine paintings and watercolors, drawings and illustrations, and travel or shipping posters. Collected poster records connect his name with Compagnie Générale Transatlantique promotions featuring ocean liners and transatlantic routes. Collectors may therefore encounter Sébille through works on paper, printed posters, illustrated publications, or marine paintings rather than through one narrowly defined series. His identity is well anchored by Wikidata, VIAF, IdRef, and the Bibliothèque nationale de France. The available source pack does not, however, include a museum biography, catalogue raisonné, or detailed chronology, so claims about his training, stylistic movement, exhibitions, and workshop practice should remain provisional.

Common works and media
Public authority records describe Sébille as a watercolorist, draftsman, poster artist, and marine painter. Works encountered in appraisal contexts may include marine paintings, watercolors and drawings, illustrated material, and printed shipping or travel posters. The collected Wikimedia records document several Compagnie Générale Transatlantique poster designs. These are examples of his graphic output rather than portraits of the artist.
Market and appraisal context
Appraisal should first determine whether the object is a painting, watercolor, drawing, illustration, or poster, because authority records document Sébille across those distinct forms. Marine subject matter and a documented relationship to his 1907 appointment as an official painter of the French Navy may also help place a work within his known professional context. The collected pack contains an Appraisily auction-page signal, but that page was rate-limited and supplied no readable lot descriptions or realized-price evidence. Accordingly, this profile does not make price-trend, scarcity, or performance claims. A valuation should rely on verified object-level evidence and genuinely comparable public sales once complete cataloguing and sale records are available.
Auction categories and appraisal factors
Common auction categories
- Marine paintings and watercolors
- Maritime posters, drawings, and illustrated works
Value drivers
- Object type and medium, including whether the work is a painting, watercolor, drawing, illustration, or printed poster
- Marine subject matter and its relationship to Sébille's documented French Navy or transatlantic-poster work
- Comparable public auction records with sufficiently detailed cataloguing, sale dates, and realized prices
Appraisal caveats
- The collected source pack contains no accessible major-auction-house biography or lot-level sale record.
- The Appraisily auction page was rate-limited during collection, so its individual lot descriptions and realized-price data could not be evaluated.
- No price trend, scarcity, or directional valuation conclusion is supported by the collected evidence.
