Also known as

Isac Friedlander, Izaks Frīdlenders

Isaac Friedlander, also catalogued as Isac Friedlander and Izaks Frīdlenders, was a Latvian-born American printmaker born in 1890 and generally recorded as having died in 1968. Authority records identify him through printmaking, separating him from the nineteenth-century California grain merchant who shared his name. Collectors are most likely to encounter his work as prints and other works on paper. Titles associated with his authority record—including Brooklyn Bridge, Coney Island, Around the Corner, 3 A.M., and Fractionating Tower (Standard Oil Refinery, Bayonne, N.J.)—suggest an interest in city life, infrastructure, industry, and the modern urban environment. These title-based themes help with cataloguing but do not establish a formal movement or complete chronology. Because the available institutional biographies are concise and one authority contribution gives a conflicting death year, identification should be checked against signatures, inscriptions, dates, provenance, and reliable collection records before a work is assigned to him.

Common works and media

Collectors are most likely to encounter prints and other works on paper. Authority-linked titles include Brooklyn Bridge, Coney Island, Around the Corner, 3 A.M., Caged, Derelict, Diversion, and Fractionating Tower (Standard Oil Refinery, Bayonne, N.J.). Together, these records indicate recurring urban, architectural, industrial, and social subjects. The source pack does not establish a complete catalogue, formal series structure, print techniques, or edition sizes, so those details should be verified from the individual object and reliable catalogue or collection documentation.

Market and appraisal context

Isaac Friedlander's public auction record is most useful when comparisons are limited to works that align in medium, dimensions, date, subject, condition, and attribution. For prints, edition information, impressions, signatures, inscriptions, paper condition, and margins may be especially relevant. Provenance, exhibition history, catalogue references, restoration, and the quality of the individual impression can also affect how a work compares with recorded sales. Appraisily's public index contains numerous name-matched records, but the shared name creates an additional identity risk. Comparable lots should therefore be reviewed individually rather than treated as automatically belonging to the printmaker. Public auction results are evidence inputs, not price guarantees, and may omit private sales or differ in their treatment of fees.

Auction categories and appraisal factors

Common auction categories

  • Works on paper and prints

Value drivers

  1. Medium, dimensions, date, and period within the artist's career
  2. Condition, restoration history, and surface quality
  3. Signature, inscriptions, edition details, and attribution confidence
  4. Provenance, exhibition history, and catalogue references
  5. Comparable public auction sales for works similar in medium, size, date, and subject
  6. Subject matter, rarity, and current demand

Appraisal caveats

  • Treat public auction records as a starting point rather than a final appraisal.
  • Confirm whether reported prices include buyer's premiums or other fees before comparing results.
  • Check the artist's identity carefully because public sources contain records for an unrelated historical figure with the same name.
  • Verify attribution, condition, and edition information directly before relying on comparable sales.
