Also known as

Claude Schürr

Claude Schurr, also recorded as Claude Schürr, was a French painter and lithographer born in Paris on 26 March 1921 and deceased in Cannes on 28 November 2014. Authority records from IdRef, VIAF, Wikidata, and Getty ULAN support entity matching across the accented and unaccented forms of his surname. IdRef also records his 1981 appointment as a painter of the French Navy. A French-language biographical reference associates Schürr with the École de Paris; because the collected source pack lacks museum, estate, or scholarly confirmation for that classification, it is best treated as useful context rather than a settled movement label. Collectors are most likely to encounter his name on paintings, lithographs, and other works on paper, the work types supported by the identity and auction sources. Searching both “Schurr” and “Schürr” can improve coverage when reviewing catalogues, signatures, and historical sale records.

PaintingLithographyWorks on paper and prints

Common works and media

The best-supported work types are paintings, lithographs, prints, and other works on paper. For appraisal purposes, a painting should be compared with works of similar medium, size, date, subject, and condition. A lithograph or other editioned work should also be checked for edition size, impression number, signature, inscriptions, paper condition, and whether the example belongs to an identified series. The collected sources do not provide enough reliable detail to characterize recurring subjects or named periods.

Market and appraisal context

Claude Schurr's public auction record includes paintings and works on paper or prints, but any estimate should be based on genuinely comparable objects rather than an artist-wide average. Medium, dimensions, date, subject, condition, restoration, signature, inscriptions, provenance, and attribution confidence can all affect comparability. Prints and lithographs also require attention to edition information and impression condition. Public sale dates and realized prices help establish context, although reporting conventions may differ over buyer premiums and fees. Private transactions, incomplete feeds, and later attribution changes may be absent, so auction data should be combined with direct inspection and object-specific research.

Auction categories and appraisal factors

Common auction categories

  • Fine art and paintings
  • Works on paper and prints

Value drivers

  1. Medium, dimensions, date, and period within the artist's career
  2. Condition, restoration history, and surface quality
  3. Signature, inscriptions, edition details, and attribution confidence
  4. Provenance, exhibition history, and catalogue references
  5. Subject matter, rarity, and current demand
  6. Comparable public auction sales for works of similar type

Appraisal caveats

  • Public auction records are a starting point rather than a complete appraisal.
  • Reported results may differ in their treatment of buyer premiums and fees, so comparisons should use consistent price definitions.
  • Private sales, incomplete auction feeds, condition differences, and revised attributions may not be represented in the public record.
