## About Alice Kent Stoddard

Alice Kent Stoddard was an American painter associated with portraiture, landscapes, and seascapes. Born in 1883 and active through much of the twentieth century, she developed a particularly strong connection to Monhegan Island, Maine, whose harbor and coastal environment attracted a substantial community of artists. Collectors may encounter her work through portraits as well as views of Maine scenery and the sea. Her portraits and other paintings also entered public collections, including the University of Pennsylvania portrait collection and Woodmere Art Museum. A secondary source describes her as an American Impressionist, although the collected institutional evidence is not detailed enough to assign that label with high confidence. Stoddard's career also included unusual wartime activity: during World War II, she reportedly worked as a combat artist and prepared aircraft designs. These biographical and geographic contexts can help identify relevant works, but they do not by themselves authenticate an unsigned or insufficiently documented object.

## Common works and media

Works encountered in collection and auction contexts are principally paintings, especially portraits, landscapes, and seascapes. Monhegan Island and Maine coastal subjects are an important documented context. The collected evidence does not establish a dependable list of print editions, sculpture, ceramics, or other recurring media, so objects in those categories require separate documentation and attribution research.

## Market and appraisal context

Auction and appraisal research for Alice Kent Stoddard most often begins by identifying the work type: portrait, landscape, seascape, or a scene connected with Monhegan Island and the Maine coast. A reliable assessment should then consider the specific medium, dimensions, date, condition, signature or inscriptions, ownership history, and supporting documentation. Public auction records can provide useful comparisons when the subjects, sizes, dates, condition, and attribution status are genuinely comparable. The collected source pack confirms that an Appraisily auction-price page exists for Stoddard, but it does not expose detailed lot results or establish a price trend. Consequently, identity research and object-level evidence should be evaluated alongside verified sale dates, realized prices, and relevant comparable lots rather than used to make an unsupported price prediction.

## 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. The evidence collected here is stronger for identity and subject matter than for detailed market analysis.
