Also known as
Hans Baldung Grien
Hans Baldung, widely known as Hans Baldung Grien, was a German painter and printmaker born around 1484 and deceased in 1545. His career belongs to the early sixteenth century, and he is frequently classified with the German Renaissance and Mannerism. Collected sources also connect his early development with Albrecht Dürer. Baldung worked across painting, printmaking, engraving, drawing, and stained glass, giving collectors several distinct kinds of objects through which they may encounter his name. Subjects represented in the collected material include religious imagery, witchcraft and the supernatural, mortality, and the stages of life. These themes, together with his activity in both unique works and reproducible graphic media, help explain his presence in museum collections, authority files, and auction records. Historical records commonly use the name Hans Baldung Grien, so that form is important when matching catalogues and collection entries to Hans Baldung.

Common works and media
Works encountered under Hans Baldung's name may include paintings, prints, engravings, drawings, other works on paper, and stained-glass material or designs. Documented subject areas include religious scenes, supernatural or witchcraft imagery, mortality, and the stages of life. The source pack does not establish how frequently these categories appear at auction, so they should be treated as documented artistic practices and themes rather than a ranked list of market supply.
Market and appraisal context
Appraisily's supplied artist-page input reports 174 records catalogued under Hans Baldung, but the source pack does not include the underlying lot descriptions or realized prices. Those records should therefore be compared by work type rather than treated as a single price series: paintings, prints or engravings, and drawings are materially different categories. Useful comparisons should consider the documented medium, subject, sale date, realized price, and full lot context. The present evidence does not establish the frequency of each category, a price trend, or the authorship of any individual object. Object-level appraisal still requires careful examination of the work and its documentation.

Appraisal caveats
- The source pack does not provide individual auction-lot descriptions, condition reports, provenance, edition or state details, or realized-price data.
- The supplied count of 174 records is an artist-page input signal, not evidence of category frequency, authenticity, scarcity, or a price trend.
- Any appraisal requires object-specific research and should not infer authorship merely because a work resembles a documented medium or subject.
