Artist context
About Pere Créixams Picó
Pere Créixams Picó (1893–1965) was a Spanish painter and illustrator active in Barcelona throughout the first half of the twentieth century. Born on November 9, 1893, in Barcelona and dying there on March 4, 1965, he spent nearly his entire career in the city. Known by several names in auction and library records—including Pedro Créixams, Pierre Creixams, and Pere Creixans—he worked across painting and illustration, producing landscapes, genre scenes, and figurative compositions. His entry appears in the Allgemeines Lexikon der bildenden Künstler (Vollmer) and the Witt Checklist of painters, and his identity is recorded in library authority files across Europe, including the Bibliothèque nationale de France, the National Library of Catalonia, and the German National Library. With over 200 documented works appearing in auction contexts, collectors most often encounter his oil paintings and illustrated works depicting Catalan landscapes and everyday figurative subjects.

Common works and media
Créixams Picó worked as both a painter and an illustrator. His documented subjects include landscapes, genre scenes, and figurative compositions. Works are typically oil on canvas or works on paper, including drawings and book or periodical illustrations. No prints, editions, sculptures, or ceramics are documented in the available sources. Collectors are most likely to encounter landscape paintings of Catalan scenery and figurative or genre scenes in mid-century Spanish style.
Market and appraisal context
Créixams Picó's work circulates primarily in European auction rooms, with Spanish and French salerooms being the most frequent venues. When evaluating a work attributed to him, key factors include the medium (oil on canvas generally carries more weight than works on paper), subject matter, dimensions, condition, and documented provenance. Because no catalogue raisonné is cited in major art-historical databases, attribution relies on signature comparison, stylistic analysis, and expert consultation. Provenance linking a work to Barcelona or Catalan collections can support attribution. Collectors should be aware that the artist's name appears in several variant forms across auction catalogs and library records, which can complicate search and verification.
