Artist context
About George Lance
Born
1802
Died
1864
Nationality
British, English
George Lance (1802–1864) was a British painter, described in English-language sources as an English artist. Public authority and museum records consistently identify the same nineteenth-century figure, while collected encyclopedia entries associate him particularly with still-life painting and portrait miniatures. These identity details help distinguish him from unrelated people who may share the name. Collectors are most likely to encounter Lance through paintings assigned to those two categories, though the supplied research pack does not establish a complete catalogue of his media, subjects, or works. His profiles at Tate and several international authority services provide a strong framework for matching records to the 1802–1864 artist. Appraisily’s input reports 171 auction-directory records, but each listing still needs work-level review before drawing conclusions about attribution, date, medium, or market standing.

Common works and media
Collected public-source excerpts identify painting as Lance’s occupation and associate him specifically with still-life works and portrait miniatures. The source pack does not establish a broader list of recurring media, subjects, editions, or named series, so objects outside these documented categories should be researched individually.
Market and appraisal context
Market review should begin by confirming that a work is attributed to the British painter George Lance who lived from 1802 to 1864. Available evidence supports separating still-life paintings from portrait miniatures when selecting relevant comparisons, since the supplied sources document these as distinct parts of his practice. The input count identifies 171 Appraisily auction-directory records, but the research pack contains no individual auction-house descriptions or realized prices. Those records should therefore be reviewed at lot level and matched by work type and sale date; the aggregate count alone does not establish a price level, trend, authenticity, or attribution.
Auction categories and appraisal factors
Common auction categories
- Still-life paintings
- Portrait miniatures
Value drivers
- Identity and attribution to the George Lance who lived from 1802 to 1864
- Work type, particularly whether the object is a still-life painting or portrait miniature
- Comparison with relevant lot-level public auction records when available
Appraisal caveats
- The source pack provides an aggregate signal of 171 auction-directory records but no fetched lot-level catalogue entries, realized prices, condition reports, or provenance details.
- No supported price trend or price range can be inferred from the collected material.
- Works outside the documented still-life and portrait-miniature categories require separate research rather than automatic comparison.
