Also known as

Roland H. Clark

Roland Clark (1874–1957) was an American painter and printmaker best known in the collected public sources for images of waterfowl. Authority records identify him as Roland Clark and Roland H. Clark, helping distinguish the artist from other people with the same name. His practice encompassed painting and printmaking, including drypoint. Public references also connect his work with early twentieth-century sporting and outdoor culture: a work participated in the painting event of the 1932 Summer Olympics art competition, and Clark produced the March 1927 cover of Field & Stream. Collectors may therefore encounter his name on bird and marsh imagery, original paintings, and graphic works. The available source pack does not establish a formal movement affiliation or provide a detailed museum-level career chronology, so Clark is most reliably described through his documented media, recurring waterfowl subject, and authority-record identity.

Common works and media

Available sources characterize Clark as a painter and printmaker associated particularly with waterfowl imagery. Works encountered in appraisal and auction contexts may therefore include original paintings, prints, and drypoints depicting birds or marsh environments. The medium should be identified before selecting comparisons because a print and a painting require different reference groups.

Market and appraisal context

Appraisal begins by confirming that a work is associated with the American painter and printmaker Roland Clark, born in 1874, rather than another person with the same name. Work type is important because an original painting and a print are not interchangeable comparison objects. Waterfowl imagery is relevant to Clark's documented specialization, but subject matter alone cannot establish authorship. Comparisons should use verified auction records for genuinely similar works and distinguish among media, including paintings, prints, and drypoints. This source pack contains no accessible major-auction-house sale result and therefore does not support a price forecast or market-trend conclusion. A current valuation requires verified object evidence and closely comparable public sales.

Auction categories and appraisal factors

Common auction categories

  • Paintings
  • Prints and drypoints
  • Waterfowl works

Value drivers

  1. Object type and medium, particularly the distinction between an original painting and a print
  2. Waterfowl subject matter as an identification and comparison characteristic
  3. Consistency of attribution with the American painter and printmaker Roland Clark, 1874–1957
  4. Comparable public auction records, sale dates, and realized prices when accessible

Appraisal caveats

  • The collected source pack contains no accessible major-auction-house biography or individual sale result, so it does not support price predictions or market-trend claims.
  • Waterfowl subject matter can assist comparison but does not independently establish authorship.
  • The public Appraisily artist page returned a rate-limit response during collection, preventing verification of its individual auction records.
