Also known as

Hans Kornig, Hans Koernig

Hans Körnig (1905–1989) was a German painter and graphic artist whose principal body of work developed in Dresden during the 1950s. He is especially associated with aquatint etching, a printmaking process central to his graphic practice, while his broader output also included oil painting. Public biographical material describes an oeuvre of approximately 1,300 graphic works and 300 oils, indicating that collectors may encounter both works on paper and paintings rather than one uniform type of object. His close connection with Dresden provides an important historical and geographic context, but the collected sources do not establish a formal movement or school strongly enough to assign one here. At auction, his name may also appear without the umlaut as Hans Kornig or in the transliteration Hans Koernig. Careful identity matching therefore matters when comparing records, especially for prints whose inscriptions, states, or edition details may differ between catalogues.

Common works and media

Collectors may encounter Körnig’s aquatint etchings and other graphic works, as well as oil paintings. Prints should be documented with sheet and image dimensions, visible inscriptions, signature, state, edition information, paper condition, and any catalogue reference. Paintings require separate comparison by medium, support, dimensions, date, condition, provenance, and attribution confidence.

Market and appraisal context

Appraisal should begin by separating Körnig’s graphic work—especially aquatint etchings—from oil paintings and comparing like with like. Medium, dimensions, date, condition, restoration, signature or inscriptions, edition information, provenance, exhibition history, catalogue references, subject, and attribution confidence can affect the relevance of a comparable lot. Public sale records should also be checked by sale date and reporting basis because realized figures may not be directly comparable when fee treatment differs. The collected Appraisily page contains inconsistent record totals, so its counts and summary statistics require verification before use. This source pack supports a comparison framework but does not support a price forecast for an individual work.

Appraisal caveats

  • Public auction records are a starting point rather than a complete appraisal, and private sales or incomplete feeds may be absent (https://appraisily.com/artist/hans-kornig/).
  • The collected Appraisily page contains conflicting record summaries: one section mentions two tracked lots, while its data-basis section reports 46 matched records and 23 priced records (https://appraisily.com/artist/hans-kornig/).
  • Authentication, attribution, condition, and edition status require object-specific examination before relying on comparable sales (https://appraisily.com/artist/hans-kornig/).
