## About Alessandro Milesi

Alessandro Milesi (1856–1945) was an Italian painter, identified consistently by Wikidata, VIAF, and the Getty ULAN authority record. Public biographical summaries describe him chiefly as a painter of genre subjects, emphasizing people, everyday situations, and narrative incident rather than a documented modernist movement. His career spans the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, a useful frame when distinguishing his work from later artists with similar names. Collectors are most likely to encounter Milesi through paintings catalogued under his full name and through auction-record aggregations. The collected evidence supports his broad identity, occupation, nationality, and genre orientation, but it does not establish a catalogue raisonné, a securely documented list of series, or a detailed chronology of stylistic phases. Appraisal therefore begins with confirming that a work and its documentation correspond to this Italian painter’s authority identity.

## Common works and media

Available sources support paintings, particularly works classified as genre subjects, as the most defensible description of Milesi’s commonly encountered work. The source pack does not verify a recurring series or substantiate prints, sculpture, ceramics, posters, editions, or other work types, so those categories should not be assigned without object-specific evidence.

## Market and appraisal context

The collected pack confirms an Appraisily auction-record surface for Alessandro Milesi but supplies no individual lot descriptions, realized prices, provenance histories, condition reports, or auction-house commentary. It therefore cannot support a price range or a claim that particular subjects, dates, or formats command a premium. The strongest initial appraisal step is to match the object’s attribution to the authority-identified Italian painter born in 1856. Lot-specific evidence and genuinely comparable public sales should then be evaluated when available. The death year should also be handled carefully in cataloguing: 1945 is supported by Wikidata and the principal VIAF heading, while one authority form displayed by VIAF gives 1946.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine public artist-identity research with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available; this source pack provides stronger identity evidence than market-detail evidence.
