## About Charles Cumberworth

Charles Cumberworth (1811–1852) was a French sculptor. Wikidata, VIAF, Getty ULAN, and the National Gallery of Art maintain public identity records for him, helping distinguish his work from that of similarly named makers. A French biographical source gives his full dates as 17 February 1811 to 18 May 1852 and associates his birth with Verdun and death with Enghien-les-Bains. The source pack also documents a sculpture titled The Indian Huntress (La chasseresse indienne). Its image record describes the model as made by 1841 and the represented cast as dating to the 1840s, illustrating why a sculpture may carry both a model date and a casting date. Collectors may encounter Cumberworth through nineteenth-century French sculpture, museum records, or auction listings for figurative works. Available sources securely establish his identity and occupation but do not provide enough evidence here for a complete account of his training, stylistic affiliations, oeuvre, or exhibition history.

## Common works and media

The public evidence identifies Cumberworth as a sculptor. The only specifically documented object in this source pack is the figurative sculpture The Indian Huntress (La chasseresse indienne), whose metadata distinguishes the model date from the date of the represented cast. The available material does not establish a complete list of recurring subjects, materials, editions, or work types, so other objects should be evaluated from their own inscriptions, documentation, construction, and attribution evidence.

## Market and appraisal context

Assessment should begin by confirming that an object is correctly attributed to Charles Cumberworth and by separating the date of the underlying model from the date of a particular cast. The collected record for The Indian Huntress demonstrates that distinction: its model is dated by 1841, while the represented cast is assigned to the 1840s. Chronology and object type can determine which public auction records are genuinely comparable. The source pack does not provide accessible major-auction-house lots, realized prices, or object-level evidence for material, dimensions, foundry, edition, condition, or provenance. Those details therefore remain unverified for appraisal purposes. The Appraisily page request was also rate-limited, so this profile makes no claim about price ranges, trends, scarcity, or market direction.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine researched artist identities with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are publicly available and sufficiently documented. This profile separates verified identity evidence from market details that remain unavailable in the collected source pack.
