About Guy Bardone
Born

Died
2015
Nationality
French
Guy Bardone (1927–2015) was a French painter and works-on-paper artist born in Saint-Claude in the Jura region. Authority records identify him as a painter, lithographer, illustrator, and engraver, while biographical material also describes his work in watercolor. His documented output therefore spans unique works and reproducible graphic media rather than a single category. Bibliographic records connect Bardone with color lithographs, illustrated material, posters, still lifes, and place-oriented compositions. They also identify dated examples produced through established print channels, including a 1980 poster printed by Mourlot. Collectors may consequently encounter his name on paintings and watercolors as well as lithographs, engravings, illustrated publications, or posters. Stable records maintained by Getty ULAN, VIAF, IdRef, the Library of Congress, and the Bibliothèque nationale de France help distinguish him from similarly named artists and connect works carrying his name to a documented French artist active across several media.

Common works and media
Works associated with Guy Bardone include paintings, watercolors, color lithographs, engravings, illustrations, and posters. Catalog records document still-life imagery and titles referring to valleys, lakes, summer, and autumn, supporting a place- and season-oriented strand within his graphic output. Because both unique works and multiples may appear, cataloging should clearly distinguish an original painting or watercolor from a print, poster, or illustrated publication.
Market and appraisal context
A Guy Bardone appraisal should begin by identifying whether the object is a painting, watercolor, lithograph, engraving, illustration, or poster. Those categories are not interchangeable when selecting comparable sales. For graphic works, the image and sheet dimensions, signature, numbering, edition information, printer or publisher, paper, and condition may materially affect comparability, although the collected sources do not document those details for every work. Unique works also require object-level review of medium, support, date, subject, provenance, condition, and attribution. Public auction results can provide useful context when matched closely by work type, date, scale, and subject, but the present source pack does not support a price forecast or a general claim about market direction.
Auction categories and appraisal factors
Common auction categories
- Paintings and watercolors
- Lithographs and other prints
- Illustrations and posters
Value drivers
- The work type and medium should be established before selecting comparable records because Bardone worked across painting, watercolor, lithography, engraving, illustration, and posters.
- For prints and posters, the work's date, printer or publisher, dimensions, and relationship to a cataloged example can help distinguish relevant comparables.
- Comparable public auction records should be matched by medium and subject rather than treating every result under the artist's name as equivalent.
Appraisal caveats
- The collected source pack does not provide enough public major-auction-house detail to support price forecasts or claims about market direction.
- Edition size, impression number, signature, condition, provenance, dimensions, and attribution must be verified for the specific object; these details are not established by the identity sources in this pack.
- Auction-directory records can contain attribution variants or incomplete descriptions and should be reconciled with the object and authoritative catalog information.
