About René Buthaud

Born

1886

Died

1986

Nationality

French

René Buthaud (1886–1986) was a French painter, ceramist, and printmaker. Born in Saintes, he died in Bordeaux. Library authority records consistently identify him across these disciplines, making ceramics and painting the clearest starting points for understanding his work, while VIAF also records printmaking. Public documentation broadens that picture: ceramic vases associated with Bordeaux’s Stade Lescure are dated 1938, and Wikimedia records stained-glass works titled À la gloire de Bordeaux and Le Triomphe de Bacchus. These examples place his name across studio objects and larger decorative projects rather than within a single medium. Collectors may therefore encounter Buthaud through ceramic vessels, paintings, prints, or site-related decorative work. The available source pack does not establish a specific movement or school, so this page avoids assigning one without stronger museum or scholarly evidence.

Common works and media

Authority records identify ceramics and paintings as central categories associated with René Buthaud, while VIAF also describes him as a printmaker. Publicly documented decorative work includes ceramic vases connected with Stade Lescure in Bordeaux and stained-glass compositions titled À la gloire de Bordeaux and Le Triomphe de Bacchus. Auction and appraisal searches may therefore encounter ceramic vessels, paintings, prints, and architectural or decorative works bearing his name.

Market and appraisal context

Appraisal should first identify whether an object is ceramic, painted, printed, or part of a decorative project, because authority records describe Buthaud as working in several disciplines. Public auction comparisons are most useful when matched by work type and sale date rather than treating every record under his name as interchangeable. Documented links to named works, such as the 1938 Stade Lescure vases or the recorded stained-glass designs, can provide context, but the source pack does not establish how such links affect price. It also contains no lot-level condition, provenance, dimensions, signature, edition, estimate, or realized-price data. Those details require object-specific and sale-record review before any valuation conclusion.

Auction categories and appraisal factors

Common auction categories

  • Ceramics
  • Paintings
  • Prints
  • Decorative and architectural works, including stained glass

Value drivers

  1. Work type and medium should be identified before selecting comparisons because Buthaud is documented as a painter, ceramist, and printmaker.
  2. A documented relationship to named decorative works or commissions may provide relevant object context.
  3. Comparable public auction records should be evaluated by category and sale date when suitable records are available.

Appraisal caveats

  • The collected pack contains no lot-level condition, provenance, dimensions, signature, edition, estimate, or realized-price details.
  • The collected evidence does not support a price trend, price forecast, scarcity claim, or category-specific premium.
  • Attribution and any claimed connection to a named commission require object-specific documentation.
