About Victor Salmones

Born

1937

Died

1989

Nationality

Mexican

Victor Salmones (1937–1989) is identified by Wikidata and interconnected library-authority records as a Mexican sculptor. His identity is represented across Getty ULAN, VIAF, Library of Congress, German National Library, and ISNI records, providing useful identifiers for separating his work from similarly named people. The source pack also documents a sculpture titled Last dive in Yerevan through photographs of the work and its identifying plaque. Collectors are therefore most likely to encounter Salmones in sculpture catalogues and auction records. Available evidence does not establish a particular movement, a detailed studio chronology, recurring materials, or a complete catalogue of works, so those details should not be inferred from the artist name alone. Authority identifiers, documented titles, and carefully matched auction records provide the strongest available basis for researching an object attributed to him.

Sculpture

Common works and media

The collected authorities identify Salmones as a sculptor, and the source pack documents one titled sculpture, Last dive, in Yerevan. It does not provide enough evidence to characterize recurring materials, subjects, editions, sizes, or series, or to claim that paintings, prints, drawings, ceramics, or posters are common parts of his market. Objects encountered under his name should therefore be described according to their observed medium and construction rather than assigned to an unsupported standard type.

Market and appraisal context

Sculpture is the supported auction and appraisal category for Victor Salmones. A useful assessment should begin by confirming that the artist identity and attribution correspond to the authority records, then comparing the object only with genuinely similar public auction entries. The collected material documents the title Last dive but does not establish Salmones's usual materials, edition practices, signature conventions, dimensions, condition patterns, or price history. Those object-specific facts require separate examination and should not be assumed from an auction-directory attribution. Realized prices, when available, are historical evidence rather than automatic predictions; their relevance depends on the accuracy and comparability of each catalogue record.

Auction categories and appraisal factors

Common auction categories

  • Sculpture

Value drivers

  1. A reliable attribution and identity match to the Mexican sculptor Victor Salmones
  2. Comparison with public auction records catalogued under Victor Salmones
  3. Whether a sculpture can be related to a documented titled work, such as Last dive

Appraisal caveats

  • The collected source pack does not establish typical materials, dimensions, edition practices, signature conventions, condition issues, provenance patterns, or price levels.
  • The Appraisily auction page was rate-limited during collection, so no individual sale result or price claim was verified from its public response.
  • Public auction records associated with an artist name should be checked for attribution accuracy and genuine comparability before they are used in an appraisal.
