Also known as
John Frederick Tayler
Frederick Tayler, also identified as John Frederick Tayler (1802–1889), was an English landscape artist associated principally with watercolour painting and engraving. The collected authority record describes him as an English landscape watercolour painter, while the available biographical excerpt also records his engraving practice and service as president of the Royal Watercolour Society. These sources place his work within nineteenth-century English watercolour culture, although the source pack does not establish a narrower movement or school. Collectors may encounter his name on landscape watercolours, other works on paper, engravings, and auction records catalogued under the shorter form Frederick Tayler. Because that name may be less distinctive than the full form, careful entity matching matters. The artist's 1802–1889 dates, medium, landscape subject matter, inscriptions, and documented attribution can help distinguish his work from objects by similarly named makers. Museum and authority profiles provide additional stable identifiers for cataloguing and research.

Common works and media
Works most plausibly encountered in appraisal and auction contexts are landscape watercolours, related works on paper, and engravings. The source pack does not establish named series, edition structures, sculpture, ceramics, or other media, so those categories should not be attributed to Tayler without additional evidence.
Market and appraisal context
An appraisal should begin by confirming that an object is attributable to John Frederick Tayler, the English artist recorded with the dates 1802–1889. Medium is an important basis for comparison because the source pack documents both watercolour painting and engraving; an engraving should not automatically be compared with an original watercolour. Landscape subject matter is consistent with the documented practice, but subject alone does not establish authorship. Relevant auction comparisons should be selected by work type and attribution and then reviewed alongside the object's date and available documentation. The collected material does not provide lot-level condition, provenance, edition, or realized-price evidence, so it cannot support a price forecast or market-trend claim by itself.
Auction categories and appraisal factors
Common auction categories
- Watercolour landscapes and other works on paper
- Engravings
Value drivers
- Correct identification and attribution to John Frederick Tayler, the English artist who lived from 1802 to 1889
- Medium and work type, particularly whether the object is a watercolour or an engraving
- Relationship of the subject to Tayler's documented landscape practice
- Comparable public auction lots recorded on the Appraisily Frederick Tayler artist page
Appraisal caveats
- The collected source pack does not contain lot-level descriptions, realized prices, condition reports, provenance histories, or edition data, so it does not support price-trend or rarity conclusions.
- Several institutional and authority pages were rate-limited during collection; their URLs help establish entity matching, but their detailed records were unavailable for substantive verification.
- The claim that Tayler served as president of the Royal Watercolour Society appears only in the collected Wikipedia excerpt and should be confirmed from an institutional history before being assigned high confidence.
