About Carry Hauser
Carry Hauser (1895–1985), born Carl Maria Hauser in Vienna, was an Austrian painter, printmaker, stage set designer, and poet. Active across multiple disciplines, he worked in oil painting, lithography, etching, and linocut while also contributing illustrations and graphic designs. His long career spanned much of the twentieth century, from the final years of the Austro-Hungarian Empire through postwar Austria. The RKD Netherlands Institute for Art History records him as a lithographer, illustrator, designer, linocutter, etcher, and painter, reflecting the breadth of his printmaking and fine-art practice. Hauser is also recognized for his literary work as a poet, a dual identity documented in authority records including VIAF and Wikidata. Collectors encounter his work primarily through Austrian and Central European auction markets, where his paintings and prints appear with regularity.

Common works and media
Collectors most commonly encounter Carry Hauser's oil paintings on canvas and panel, as well as prints in lithography, etching, and linocut. He also produced illustrations and graphic designs. His work ranges from figurative compositions to landscapes and still lifes. Prints may exist in editions, though edition sizes vary and should be verified per work. Stage set designs are part of his documented output but are rarer on the secondary market.
Market and appraisal context
Carry Hauser's work appears consistently in Central European auctions, with over 250 lots recorded in Appraisily's auction database. His output spans oils, watercolors, etchings, lithographs, and linocuts, which means valuation depends heavily on medium, size, date, and subject. Oil paintings generally command stronger prices than works on paper or prints. Provenance linking a work to an Austrian collection or exhibition can add value. As with many twentieth-century Austrian artists, attribution should be confirmed, particularly for unsigned prints. Collectors should note that Hauser's stage-design work, while documented, is less frequently encountered at auction than his paintings and prints.
