## About Emmanuel Fremiet

Emmanuel Frémiet (1824–1910) was a French sculptor associated with nineteenth-century animal sculpture, equestrian subjects, and public monuments. Museum and authority records identify him as a French sculptor, while collection records show a wider range of animals, horses, historical figures, and narrative groups. His best-known public associations include the equestrian Joan of Arc in Paris and the monument to Ferdinand de Lesseps in Suez. Frémiet’s work is also encountered in smaller-scale sculptures and editions held by museums and represented in auction records. Collectors may therefore encounter both monumental subjects and compact animal or equestrian studies. The accented form Emmanuel Frémiet appears in institutional records alongside the unaccented form used by Appraisily. For identification and appraisal, the object’s medium, scale, casting or edition details, provenance, condition, and attribution should be considered together.

## Common works and media

Auction and collection contexts for Emmanuel Frémiet commonly include sculpture and mixed-media works, especially animal studies, horses, equestrian figures, historical or mythological groups, and monumental subjects. Museum records document works including cavalry or tethered horses, Saint George, and animal compositions. Appraisily’s market index also groups works on paper and prints, fine art and paintings, and decorative art or editions under the artist’s name. For an individual object, the exact medium, dimensions, casting or edition information, signature, condition, provenance, and attribution should be checked against the object and its documentation.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisily’s public market page records substantial auction activity for Emmanuel Fremiet, but its counts should be treated as an index signal rather than a complete census of every sale. Comparisons should be made between similar objects: sculpture, prints, paintings, and decorative editions may occupy different market segments. Size, date, condition, restoration, provenance, exhibition history, signature, edition information, and attribution confidence can materially affect an individual result. Subject matter, including animals and equestrian figures, may influence comparability. Public auction results do not capture every private transaction, and reported totals may differ in the treatment of buyer premiums or other fees.

## 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.
