About Frank Hider
Born
1861
Died
1933
Frank Hider (circa 1861–1933) is represented in public authority and collection indexes including Wikidata, Getty ULAN, VIAF, RKD, and Art UK. The collected material identifies him chiefly through oil-on-canvas landscapes: sunset and evening scenes, quiet rural views, and compositions involving boats. It does not establish a securely sourced artistic movement, formal training, exhibition history, nationality, or exact birth date, so those details should remain open rather than be inferred. Collectors are most likely to encounter Hider through traditional framed paintings described under landscape or marine-related headings. Public-domain file records document signed examples and one work dated 1892, providing useful object-level context but not a substitute for scholarly cataloguing or first-hand provenance. Reliable identity matching should combine the stable authority identifiers with examination of the object's signature, date, medium, dimensions, subject, condition, and ownership history.

Common works and media
The available records most often describe oil paintings on canvas. Documented subjects include sunset and evening landscapes, quiet rural scenery, general landscape scenes, and a composition featuring returning boats. Examples appear in varied dimensions and may be offered individually or as paired landscapes. Several file descriptions identify signed works, while one records a date of 1892. These examples indicate common appraisal categories but do not define a complete catalogue of Hider's work.
Market and appraisal context
An appraisal of a work associated with Frank Hider should begin by confirming the attribution wording and recording the signature, medium, dimensions, subject, condition, frame, and any documented date. The collected object records include individual canvases as well as a pair, so format and lot composition should be matched carefully when selecting comparables. Landscape, sunset, and boating subjects are represented in the available material, but this limited sample does not establish relative demand between subjects. Comparable auction lots should be matched by medium, scale, date, subject, condition, attribution, sale date, and venue. The source pack does not support a price forecast or market-trend claim.

Appraisal caveats
