## About Adriaan Lubbers

Adriaan Lubbers (1892–1954) was a Dutch artist whose documented roles span painting, drawing, lithography, glass painting, scenic painting, and theatre design. This range suggests a practice crossing easel art, works on paper, and applied or performance-related design. Public authority records identify him consistently across Wikidata, Getty ULAN, VIAF, the Library of Congress, and RKDartists, helping distinguish him from similarly named people. The collected sources do not establish a specific movement or school, so his work is best introduced through documented media and professional roles rather than a speculative label. Collectors may encounter his name on paintings, drawings, or lithographs, while records may also refer to glass-painting and theatrical work. Appraisily currently associates 215 auction-directory records with this artist, making careful identity matching, medium identification, dating, and comparison with relevant public sales important when examining a possible work by Lubbers.

## Common works and media

Documented work types associated with Adriaan Lubbers include paintings, drawings, lithographs, glass paintings, scenic paintings, and theatre-design work. Paintings, drawings, and lithographs are the clearest categories for auction and appraisal searches in the collected material. The source pack does not substantiate sculpture, ceramics, posters, named series, recurring subjects, or edition practices, so those categories should not be assigned without additional object-level evidence.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisily's current artist input links 215 auction-directory records to Adriaan Lubbers, but that count alone does not establish rarity, demand, or a price trend. An appraisal should first confirm that the object is correctly attributed to this Lubbers and identify whether it is a painting, drawing, lithograph, or another documented work type. Comparisons are most useful when they involve a similar medium and are supported by public sale dates, realized prices, and sufficiently described lots. The collected source pack does not establish which work type is most common at auction, and it provides no basis for predicting a particular object's value without object-specific evidence.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine artist-identity research with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Authority links and source limitations are retained so identity evidence can be distinguished from market evidence.
