## About Albert Schnyder

Albert Schnyder (1898–1989) was a Swiss painter and graphic artist associated in the available records with Delémont, where he was born and died. Library authority files consistently distinguish him as Albert Schnyder, the painter, and agree on his lifespan, providing a reliable entity match across Wikidata, VIAF, IdRef, and national-library catalogues. The collected source pack does not establish a named movement, school, or formal series, so those associations should not be inferred. Collectors are most likely to encounter Schnyder through paintings and works on paper or graphic art, alongside more broadly classified auction entries. Appraisily's matched public-auction index contains 58 records for his name, including 35 priced results spanning 2004–2025. That record set makes his work visible in appraisal and auction contexts, but it should be read as a matched-market sample rather than a complete catalogue of his production. Identity, medium, date, subject, and attribution should be checked work by work.

## Common works and media

The identity sources support painting and graphic art as Schnyder's principal documented fields. Appraisily's auction index groups matched lots primarily under fine art and paintings and works on paper and prints. Some records also carry broader sculpture, mixed-media, decorative-art, or edition labels, but the collected evidence is not detailed enough to treat those categories as characteristic without inspecting the individual object, images, dimensions, inscriptions, and auction description.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisily's matched index records 58 public-auction lots under Albert Schnyder, with 35 priced results and an observed range of $50 to $17,500 for sales dated 2004–2025. These figures describe the collected sample, not a prediction for another work. A useful comparison should align medium, dimensions, date, subject, condition, restoration history, signature or inscriptions, provenance, exhibition history, catalogue references, and attribution confidence. Edition details also matter for prints or other multiples. Broad category labels should be verified against each lot because the source data includes paintings, works on paper, prints, and less certain classifications. Reported totals may treat buyer premiums and fees differently, while private sales and incomplete feeds remain outside the visible record.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine public artist-identity research with matched auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. The resulting market view is evidence for further appraisal research, not a catalogue raisonné or authentication opinion.
