## About Charles Schreyvogel

Charles Schreyvogel (1861–1912) was an American painter known for subjects drawn from the American West and for a particular interest in military life. Public authority files from Wikidata, VIAF, Getty ULAN, and IdRef consistently identify him and his lifespan, providing a reliable entity match across library and art-reference systems. Rather than assigning him to a formal movement not established by the collected sources, Schreyvogel is best described through subject and historical context: western scenes and military activity associated with the era commonly characterized as the disappearing frontier. Collectors are therefore most likely to encounter his name in connection with narrative western painting. The available evidence is stronger on identity and subject than on a full scholarly biography, so this page avoids unsupported claims about his training, chronology, or named series. For appraisal purposes, identity, medium, subject, and comparable auction records should be examined as distinct evidence categories.

## Common works and media

Available sources identify Schreyvogel as a painter of American Western subjects, with a noted interest in military life. Auction and appraisal searches should therefore expect paintings described as western, frontier, or military scenes. The source pack does not establish a reliable catalogue of prints, drawings, sculptures, editions, posters, or named series, so those categories should not be treated as characteristic without object-level evidence.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisal context should begin with a confirmed identity match and comparison with relevant public auction records. For Schreyvogel, the collected sources support painting as the principal work type and western and military subject matter as the clearest comparison dimensions. When auction records are available, comparisons should be filtered by work type, subject, dimensions, sale date, and realized price. The present source pack does not include individual lot cataloguing or a major auction-house biography, however. Condition, provenance, and attribution may be important in an object-level appraisal, but they are not documented here as artist-specific market findings. No price forecast or market trend should be inferred from the record count alone.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine artist-identity research with auction records and, when available, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots. Authority records support identity matching; auction evidence must still be assessed for genuine comparability.
