## About David Schneuer

David Schneuer (1905–1988) was a Polish-born Israeli painter and graphic artist whose practice also encompassed commercial art, poster design, and stage design. Getty ULAN records painter, graphic artist, and commercial artist among his professional roles, while multilingual biographical sources associate his early activity with Germany and his later career with Israel. Authority files preserve several forms of his name, including Dawid Schneuer and a Hebrew form, which helps distinguish his work in catalogs and collection records. The collected sources do not assign Schneuer securely to a named art movement or document a defined series. His identity is therefore best understood through his overlapping work in painting, theatrical design, and twentieth-century graphic culture. Collectors may encounter his name on paintings, graphic compositions, posters, or material connected with stage design, although the exact technique and status of any object require work-specific examination.

## Common works and media

Authority and biographical sources associate Schneuer with paintings, graphic and commercial artwork, posters, and stage design. These are the most defensible categories for appraisal and auction research. The collected evidence does not establish recurring subjects, named series, specific print processes, edition practices, or preferred painting materials, so those details should be determined from the individual object and its documentation rather than assumed from the artist name.

## Market and appraisal context

Market review should begin by identifying the kind of object being offered. Authority records connect Schneuer with painting, graphic and commercial art, posters, and stage design, so comparisons across those categories may be misleading. His different Latin-script and Hebrew name forms also make careful attribution and catalog matching important. Once sale-level evidence is available, an appraisal can compare the object with public auction records for materially similar works and consider the sale date and realized result. The present source pack does not supply dimensions, condition reports, provenance, edition information, or detailed lot descriptions, so it cannot support a price forecast or a claim about market direction.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine researched artist identity with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Identity and market conclusions remain limited to the evidence documented for each artist and object.
