## About Antoine Coyzevox

Antoine Coyzevox (1640–1720), also catalogued as Antoine Coysevox and Charles Antoine Coysevox, was a French sculptor associated with the Baroque and the court style of Louis XIV. He is especially known for sculpture made for the gardens and palace at Versailles and for portrait busts. These two strands—decorative projects and portraiture—help explain why his name appears across museum, library, and auction records. Collectors may encounter objects presented as works by Coyzevox, as reproductions, or as works made after his designs; those distinctions are central to identification. Authority records from Wikidata, VIAF, Getty ULAN, and French library systems connect established spelling variants with the same historical artist. The strongest entity signals for research are his French identity, 1640–1720 lifespan, occupation as a sculptor, Baroque context, Versailles association, and portrait-bust practice.

## Common works and media

Commonly encountered formats include sculpture, portrait busts, and decorative sculpture associated with palace or garden settings. Library records also document reproductions of busts and works catalogued as after Coysevox. Those objects should be separated from works securely attributed to the artist when researching identity, comparables, or appraisal context.

## Market and appraisal context

Market assessment should begin with attribution: a work described as by Coyzevox is not equivalent to one catalogued as presumed, after Coysevox, or as a reproduction. French authority records in the source pack use several such relationships. Work type and subject also matter when selecting comparables, because portrait busts and sculpture connected with palace or garden decoration belong to different contexts. Appraisily’s auction records can help locate public comparables and review sale dates and realized prices when available, but those records do not establish authorship by themselves. The supplied sources lack enough auction-house detail to support price trends or a material-specific hierarchy, so an appraisal should keep attribution and lot-level evidence explicit.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine artist-identity research with available auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots. Each object still requires separate review because an entity match or auction record alone does not establish authorship, condition, or value.
