Artist context
About George Sheridan Knowles
Born
1863
Died
1931
Nationality
British
George Sheridan Knowles (1863–1931) is identified by Wikidata as a British painter and by VIAF as an English painter and illustrator. The records agree on his name and lifespan, providing a useful foundation for matching catalogue entries and distinguishing him from similarly named artists. The collected evidence offers little readable museum or scholarly biography, however: several institutional profiles were rate-limited, and the Getty excerpt did not expose its detailed record fields. No particular movement, school, training history, exhibition history, subject specialization, or named series can therefore be assigned confidently from this source pack. For cataloguing purposes, Knowles can be associated with painting and illustration, the two practices directly supported by the available authority descriptions. This profile prioritizes reliable identity resolution while leaving more specific art-historical characterization open until fuller museum, catalogue, or scholarly evidence becomes available.
PaintingIllustration
Common works and media
The available authority evidence supports two broad types of work: paintings and illustration-related works. It does not substantiate particular techniques, subjects, named series, editions, sculptures, ceramics, posters, or printmaking. Each submitted object should therefore be classified from its physical characteristics and documentation rather than assigned a narrower category solely from the artist's name.
Market and appraisal context
An appraisal should first confirm that a work is associated with George Sheridan Knowles, born in 1863 and deceased in 1931, rather than a namesake. It should then determine whether the object belongs to the painting or illustration practice described by authority records. The collected material does not include readable auction-house lot descriptions, realized results, or artist-specific pricing analysis, so it cannot support a price trend or assumptions about favored subjects. Valuation should instead use the individual work's medium, dimensions, condition, attribution, date, provenance, and the closest relevant public comparable sales, keeping original paintings and illustration-related material clearly distinguished.
Auction categories and appraisal factors
Common auction categories
- Paintings
- Illustration-related works
Value drivers
- Identity matching against the established name and 1863–1931 lifespan
- Classification of the object as a painting or an illustration-related work
Appraisal caveats
- The collected source pack contains no readable major-auction-house evidence, so it does not support artist-specific price trends, record-price claims, or conclusions about demand.
- Condition, attribution, provenance, dimensions, date, subject, and comparable sales must be established from the individual object and relevant public records before drawing a value conclusion.
