Pavel Mansurov (1896–1983), widely cataloged in France as Paul Mansouroff, was born in Saint Petersburg and became associated with the Russian avant-garde. Authority records describe him as a French artist of Russian origin and a graphic artist; he settled in Paris in 1929 and died in Nice. His work is often discussed in relation to non-objective abstraction, using restrained geometric arrangements and spatial relationships rather than narrative subjects. MoMA catalogs an early composition from 1918 and later works including a portfolio plate published in 1962 and an untitled work dated 1967, showing that his practice extended beyond the revolutionary-era avant-garde. Exhibition references preserved by IdRef list paintings, reliefs, gouaches, and drawings spanning 1918–1982. Collectors may therefore encounter unique paintings and works on paper, relief constructions, or editioned avant-garde prints bearing one of several French, English, or Russian forms of his name.

Common works and media
Documented work types include paintings, reliefs, gouaches, drawings, and prints. MoMA's holdings include a 1918 non-objective composition, a plate from the international avant-garde portfolio published in 1962, and a 1967 untitled work. Auction or appraisal candidates may consequently range from unique geometric abstractions and works on paper to constructed reliefs and editioned portfolio material. Name variants should be reconciled before comparing records.
Market and appraisal context
Appraisily's current artist input associates 185 auction-directory records with Pavel Mansurov, but the collected source pack does not include itemized lot descriptions, major-house result pages, or realized-price evidence. Appraisal should therefore begin with exact identity matching across Pavel Mansurov, Paul Mansouroff, and related transliterations. Medium and object type matter because institutional sources document paintings, reliefs, gouaches, drawings, and an editioned portfolio plate. Date and context also require care: an early 1918 composition should not be compared mechanically with work from the 1960s or later. Useful comparables should match work type, period, and edition status where applicable. No price forecast or market trend is asserted from this evidence.
Auction categories and appraisal factors

- Paintings
- Works on paper, including gouaches and drawings
- Reliefs
- Prints and portfolio plates
Value drivers
- Correct identity matching across Pavel Mansurov, Paul Mansouroff, and other authority-record transliterations
- Object type and medium, distinguishing paintings, reliefs, gouaches, drawings, and prints
- Date and relationship to the artist's early avant-garde work or later production
- Unique work versus an editioned portfolio plate
- Comparable public auction records matched by work type, period, and edition status
Appraisal caveats
- The source pack provides an aggregate Appraisily record count but no itemized auction lots, realized prices, or major auction-house result pages.
- No price range, market trend, or liquidity claim can be supported from the collected evidence alone.
- Auction-directory records require object-level review because the artist appears under several transliterated name forms.
