## About David Hagerbaumer

David Hagerbaumer is identified by Wikidata and VIAF as an American artist, with “Dave Hagerbaumer” recorded as an alternate form of his name. VIAF also connects the identity with bibliographic titles concerning American game birds and waterfowling, providing limited evidence for the wildlife context in which his name appears. Collectors encounter Hagerbaumer through a substantial body of matched public auction records, but the available source pack does not establish his birth and death dates, formal training, artistic movement, or a definitive chronology of his work. The present auction index uses broad groupings that include paintings, works on paper and prints, mixed-media or sculptural objects, and decorative works or editions. Those categories describe matched market records rather than a scholarly catalogue of the artist's practice. Careful identification should therefore combine the authority-record identity with signatures, inscriptions, medium, subject, provenance, and evidence specific to the individual object.

## Common works and media

The available auction index groups matched Hagerbaumer lots broadly as fine art and paintings, works on paper and prints, sculpture and mixed media, and decorative art and editions. These labels are useful for navigating auction records but do not establish that every category represents a documented part of his oeuvre. VIAF's bibliographic associations point to game-bird and waterfowling subject matter. For appraisal, the object's actual medium, construction, dimensions, imagery, signature, inscriptions, edition status, and provenance should be established before choosing comparable sales.

## Market and appraisal context

David Hagerbaumer's auction history should be assessed through closely comparable works rather than a single overall price statistic. Relevant comparisons should align as closely as possible on medium, dimensions, date, subject, condition, restoration, signature or inscriptions, edition information, provenance, and attribution confidence. The current Appraisily index reports matched public sales from 2000 through 2026, but its records may omit private transactions or parts of the auction market. Reported results can also differ in whether buyer premiums and fees are included. Broad category labels and unusually high or low results require inspection of the underlying lots before they are used as appraisal evidence. Authentication and condition findings can materially change which sales are genuinely comparable.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine public artist-identity research with matched auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Coverage can be incomplete, and each proposed comparable should be checked against the individual object's attribution, medium, condition, dimensions, subject, and provenance.
