David Cox

David Cox (1783–1859) is identified in the collected portrait metadata as a landscape painter. The source pack does not include an institution-grade biography, authority file, or museum collection essay, so nationality, full birth and death dates, training, affiliations, and movement labels remain unconfirmed here. Collectors encounter the name through Appraisily's matched public-auction index, which covers records dated from 2007 through 2025, but the available market page uses broad category labels and provides limited evidence for defining the artist's complete body of work. Objects should therefore be matched by more than a name or signature. Date, medium, subject, inscriptions, provenance, and comparison with securely documented examples are important when considering attribution. This profile treats the 1783–1859 lifespan and landscape-painter description as provisionally supported by two collected portrait records while leaving nationality, movements, characteristic subjects, and named series open pending stronger institutional sources.

Landscape painting

Common works and media

The collected market page groups records under broad headings that include fine art and paintings, works on paper and prints, sculpture and mixed media, and decorative art and editions. These are index categories, not a confirmed catalogue of David Cox's practice. The portrait metadata identifies him as a landscape painter but does not document particular works, subjects, or techniques. Until museum, scholarly catalogue, or authority sources are added, appraisal intake should record an object's exact medium, support, dimensions, subject, signature or inscriptions, condition, and provenance rather than assuming that it represents a typical work by the artist.

Market and appraisal context

Appraisily's collected market page reports 22 matched records, 11 with prices, dated from 2007 through 2025. It gives an observed price range of $400 to $10,795 and a median near $1,375. These figures describe the current index rather than predicting the value of another work. Reported results may also differ in their treatment of buyer's premiums and fees. Useful comparisons should closely match medium, dimensions, date, condition, restoration history, signature or inscriptions, provenance, exhibition or catalogue references, and attribution confidence. Because the identity evidence and category classification in this source pack are thin, each lot image and description should be reviewed before the result is accepted as a meaningful comparable.

Auction categories and appraisal factors

Common auction categories

  • Fine art and paintings
  • Works on paper and prints
  • Sculpture and mixed media
  • Decorative art and editions

Value drivers

  1. Medium, dimensions, date, and period within the artist's career
  2. Condition, restoration history, and surface quality

  4. Provenance, exhibition history, and catalogue references
  5. Comparable public auction results for works with similar characteristics

Appraisal caveats

  • The broad auction categories are index classifications and should not be treated as a definitive catalogue of the artist's work.
  • Public auction records are a starting point rather than a final appraisal.
  • Private sales, incomplete feeds, differing treatment of fees, and later attribution changes may not be represented.
  • Authentication, attribution confidence, and condition can materially affect an appraisal.
