Also known as
Marie-Lucie Nessi-Valtat
Marie Lucie Nessi (1910–1992), also recorded under her married name Marie-Lucie Nessi-Valtat, was a French painter born in Paris and deceased in Villiers-le-Bel. Wikidata and VIAF independently connect these name forms and identify her as a French painter, helping distinguish her works from records filed under abbreviated or variant names. Public authority data establishes her identity more firmly than it establishes her artistic classification: the collected sources do not provide reliable evidence for a particular movement, school, recurring subject, or named series. Collectors may nevertheless encounter her paintings in auction records under either Nessi or Nessi-Valtat. When researching a work, both forms should be checked because cataloguing practices can vary between auction houses and library authorities. This page therefore treats identity matching as established while leaving stylistic and chronological claims open until museum, catalogue, archival, or other scholarly documentation becomes available.
Painting
Common works and media
The collected authority sources identify Nessi as a painter, so paintings are the only securely supported work type in this profile. The available material does not establish characteristic subjects, techniques, named series, print editions, drawings, sculptures, ceramics, or posters. Objects catalogued under either Nessi or Nessi-Valtat should be evaluated from their own physical and documentary evidence.
Market and appraisal context
Paintings attributed to Marie Lucie Nessi may appear in public auction data under her birth name or the married form Marie-Lucie Nessi-Valtat. Correctly reconciling those names is an important first step when selecting comparable records. An appraisal should then examine the specific object's medium, dimensions, condition, inscriptions, provenance, subject, and date rather than treating every name-matched result as equivalent. Relevant public sales can provide context through catalogue descriptions, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots, but the collected source pack did not expose enough lot-level detail to characterize price patterns or preferred subjects responsibly. Attribution and object-level evidence should therefore remain central to any valuation conclusion.
Auction categories and appraisal factors
Common auction categories
- Paintings
Value drivers
- Accurate identity matching across the names Marie Lucie Nessi and Marie-Lucie Nessi-Valtat
- Comparison with public auction records associated with the artist identity, including sale dates and realized prices when available
Appraisal caveats
- The collected sources establish the artist's identity and occupation but provide little detail about individual works, materials, dimensions, condition, provenance, subjects, or dated periods.
- A name match alone does not establish authorship; signatures, inscriptions, provenance, physical characteristics, and specialist examination should be considered for a specific object.
- The collected Appraisily page was rate-limited during retrieval, so its underlying auction records could not be examined individually in this research pass.
