About Martin Peikert

Died
1975
Nationality
Swiss
Martin Peikert (1901–1975) was a Swiss artist, graphic designer, and poster specialist associated particularly with tourism promotion. He worked in Vevey and Zug and became known for posters and brochures advertising Swiss destinations. Authority records connect his name with campaigns for Brig, Champéry, Crans-sur-Sierre, mountain railways, ski lifts, golf, and winter sporting events. These records place his work within the practical, image-led tradition of twentieth-century Swiss commercial graphic design, although the collected sources do not assign him to a named artistic movement. Collectors may encounter Peikert through destination posters, resort advertising, transportation promotions, and related printed material rather than through a single fine-art series. Identifying the advertised location, operator, event, and approximate date is therefore central to understanding an example. His established authority identifiers also help distinguish correctly attributed works from records belonging to people with similar names.

Market and appraisal context
Peikert’s market context centers on tourism posters and related promotional graphics. An appraisal should first establish the object’s format and identify its destination, resort, transportation operator, event, or commercial campaign. Catalogued titles associated with Brig, Champéry, Crans-sur-Sierre, ski transportation, golf, and a 1945 winter military championship provide useful identity and subject references. Comparable auction records are most informative when they concern closely related formats, subjects, and campaign periods. The collected pack does not expose individual lot descriptions, realized prices, printing information, dimensions, editions, provenance, or condition reports, so it cannot support a price forecast. Those object-specific details and verified public sales would be required for a defensible valuation.
Auction categories and appraisal factors

Value drivers
- Work type and format, including whether the object is a poster, brochure, or another promotional graphic

Appraisal caveats
- The collected source pack does not provide individual auction-lot descriptions, realized prices, dimensions, printing details, edition information, provenance, or condition reports.
- The supplied auction-record count indicates a substantial name-indexed record set, but the public Appraisily page could not be fetched during collection; individual records should be reviewed before drawing market conclusions.
- No price prediction or market trend can be supported from this source pack alone.
