Also known as
Colin Graeme Roe, Colin Roe, Roe, Colin Graeme, Graeme, Colin
Colin Graeme is the shortened auction-facing name associated with Colin Graeme Roe, a British painter who died in 1910. Authority records agree on his full name, nationality, occupation, and death year, although they differ between 1857 and 1858 for his birth year. Public records connect Roe particularly with animal subjects. VIAF associates him with works or headings titled Dogs and Study of a Horse, while documented public-domain images show setters, gundogs, a dog study, and a shepherding scene. The collected examples are predominantly oils on canvas, with at least one oil-on-board study. No specific movement is securely established by this source pack, so his work is better described through its British animal-painting context than assigned to a formal school. Collectors may encounter works under Colin Graeme, Colin Graeme Roe, or Colin Roe, making name reconciliation important when reviewing signatures, catalogues, and auction records.

Common works and media
The most securely documented works in the collected sources are animal paintings, especially oils depicting dogs, setters, gundogs, and horses. Oil on canvas is represented repeatedly, while an oil-on-board dog study shows that smaller studies can also occur. Pastoral subjects appear in the collected material as well. Other categories shown on the market page, including works on paper and prints, have less artist-specific support in this source pack and should be assessed individually rather than treated as characteristic.
Market and appraisal context
Appraisily's collected market page reports a substantial body of matched public auction records under Colin Graeme and related name variants. A useful appraisal comparison should nevertheless begin with the individual object, not an overall artist median. Relevant factors include medium, dimensions, date, animal subject, condition, restoration, signature or inscriptions, provenance, and the strength of the attribution. Compare an oil-on-canvas dog scene with recently sold works of similar scale, composition, and quality rather than with every record carrying the artist's name. Reported results may treat buyer premiums differently, and private sales or revised attributions may be absent. Because the public display name is shorter than the authority-record name, each comparable lot should also be checked for a defensible connection to Colin Graeme Roe.

Appraisal caveats
- Public auction records are a starting point rather than a complete appraisal.
- Private sales, incomplete feeds, buyer-premium treatment, and later attribution changes may not be represented consistently.
- The short auction name Colin Graeme should be reconciled with the authority-record name Colin Graeme Roe before treating a lot as an exact artist match.
- Condition and authentication evidence can materially affect the relevance of otherwise similar auction results.
