About Jan Mankes
Born
1889
Died
1920
Nationality
Dutch
Jan Mankes (1889–1920) was a Dutch painter, draftsperson and printmaker whose career belongs to the early twentieth-century Netherlands. Authority records consistently identify him across those roles, while published summaries describe a body of paintings, drawings and prints. His subjects included self-portraits, landscapes, birds and other animals, giving collectors several distinct kinds of work to identify. Mankes died at thirty, so his documented production was concentrated within a short working life. Public summaries give different approximate counts for paintings and prints, and this profile therefore avoids presenting a single oeuvre total as settled. No formal movement is assigned here because the collected institution-grade evidence does not establish one. Collectors may encounter his name on paintings, works on paper and graphic works, where the first task is to establish the medium and compare the object with records from the same work type and subject category.

Common works and media
Works associated with Jan Mankes include paintings, drawings and graphic works or prints. Published summaries identify self-portraits, landscapes, birds and other animals among his recurring subjects. In an auction or appraisal setting, these categories should remain distinct: an original painting, a drawing on paper and a printed impression require different comparison sets. The collected evidence does not establish a definitive edition catalogue or settled totals for every medium.
Market and appraisal context
Appraisal research for Jan Mankes should begin by distinguishing paintings from drawings and prints, since these are separate work types within his documented practice. Subject classification also matters when selecting comparisons: self-portraits, landscapes, birds and other animal studies should be compared with closely related works where possible. Appraisily's public artist page supplies an auction-record signal, but the collected source pack does not include extracted lot descriptions, sale dates, realized prices, dimensions, condition reports or provenance histories. It therefore supports category-level guidance rather than a price forecast. A valuation should use verified object details and relevant public sales rather than relying on the artist name alone.
Auction categories and appraisal factors
Common auction categories
- Paintings
- Drawings and other works on paper
- Prints and graphic works
Value drivers
- Work type and medium: painting, drawing, or print
- Subject category, including self-portrait, landscape, bird, or other animal study
- Comparable public auction records for works of the same medium and subject category
Appraisal caveats
- The collected source pack contains no major-auction-house biography or extracted lot-level sale details, so it does not support price-trend, scarcity-premium, or record-price claims.
- Published summaries disagree on approximate totals for Mankes's paintings and prints; oeuvre counts should not be treated as settled without consulting the cited 2007 oeuvre catalogue or another scholarly catalogue.
