## About Eduardo Castrillo

Eduardo Castrillo was a Filipino sculptor whose documented work includes public monuments, statues, and civic commemorations. The collected sources identify him as Eduardo de los Santos Castrillo and connect his practice with sculpture rather than a specific art movement. Publicly documented examples include a monument associated with Andrés Bonifacio and the Katipunan Revolution, a five-meter statue of José Rizal installed in Campbelltown, Australia, and a sculpture representing the heritage of Misamis Oriental. These examples show an engagement with Philippine history, national figures, and regional identity at an architectural or public scale. Collectors may encounter Castrillo’s name through sculptures offered at auction, while his larger monuments provide useful context for understanding his broader practice. The available source pack does not establish his life dates, a formal movement affiliation, or a complete chronology, so those details should remain open rather than be inferred.

## Common works and media

The public examples collected for Castrillo are sculptures, especially monuments and statues with historical, commemorative, or civic subjects. They include representations connected with Andrés Bonifacio, José Rizal, the Katipunan Revolution, and the heritage of Misamis Oriental. The source pack does not establish which materials, sizes, editions, or smaller work types appear most often at auction, so individual objects should be classified from their physical characteristics and catalog documentation.

## Market and appraisal context

The collected material establishes Castrillo’s identity as a Filipino sculptor but does not provide readable major auction-house entries, realized prices, edition information, material descriptions, or condition reports. A responsible appraisal should therefore begin with the object itself: confirm the attribution, medium, dimensions, date, inscriptions, condition, provenance, and whether the work is unique or part of an edition. Comparable public sales should then be selected for genuine similarity in work type, scale, subject, date, and documentation. The number of records associated with an artist page can indicate that auction evidence exists, but it does not by itself establish demand, authenticity, or a price trend.

## 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 publicly available and sufficiently documented.
