## About David Azuz

David Azuz (1942–2014) is identified by Wikidata and international library authority records as an Israeli painter. VIAF connects his English name with the Hebrew form דוד עזוז and consolidates records from the Library of Congress, National Library of Israel, Getty Union List of Artist Names, ISNI, and Wikidata. These linked identities help distinguish the artist in collection databases and auction catalogues. The available source pack does not establish a documented movement, school, recurring subject, named series, exhibition history, or detailed chronology, so those associations should not be inferred. It supports a cautious description of Azuz as a painter whose works may appear in secondary-market catalogues, while leaving individual objects to be assessed from their own cataloguing and documentation. One Art UK identifier gives 1941 as his birth year, creating an unresolved discrepancy with the 1942 date used by Wikidata and VIAF.

## Common works and media

The authority records identify Azuz as a painter, making paintings the only work type supported by this source pack. There is not enough evidence here to claim recurring subjects, print editions, sculptures, ceramics, drawings, posters, or named series. Objects should be described from their observed medium and documentation rather than assigned to an unsupported body of work.

## Market and appraisal context

The collected evidence supports identity matching and a broad paintings category, but it does not provide sufficiently detailed auction-lot records for a price range or market-trend claim. An appraisal should first establish that the artist named on an object corresponds to the linked David Azuz authority records. The source pack does not document recurring subjects, periods, editions, dimensions, condition, provenance, or other object-level characteristics. Those details must therefore come from the work, its records, and relevant comparable sales rather than from this biography. The unresolved 1941/1942 birth-year discrepancy should also be considered when matching catalogue entries.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine artist-identity research with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. For David Azuz, the present identity evidence is stronger than the collected lot-level evidence.
