## About Erasmus Bernhard von Dülmen Krumpelmann

Erasmus Bernhard von Dülmen Krumpelmann (1897–1987) was a Dutch painter and watercolorist. Public authority records also identify him as Erasmus Bernhard van Dulmen Krumpelman, while abbreviated and differently spelled forms appear in library catalogues. These name variations matter when matching auction records, exhibition references, signatures, and catalogue entries. The collected institutional records establish his nationality, lifespan, and activity as a painter and watercolorist, but they do not assign him securely to a named artistic movement. Collectors are most likely to encounter his name in connection with paintings and works on paper, particularly watercolors. Appraisily therefore treats spelling, medium, dimensions, date, signature, and provenance as important evidence when connecting an object or auction lot to this artist. More detailed claims about stylistic development, subjects, or distinct career periods require stronger museum, estate, or scholarly documentation than the current source pack provides.

## Common works and media

Authority data specifically identifies von Dülmen Krumpelmann as a watercolorist as well as a painter. Auction and appraisal searches should therefore consider paintings, watercolors, and other works on paper, including records filed under alternate spellings of his name. The collected evidence does not securely establish sculpture, ceramics, named series, recurring subjects, or edition practices as characteristic parts of his work.

## Market and appraisal context

The collected Appraisily market snapshot contains five priced auction matches dated from 2018 through 2019. It reports a median result around $400 and an observed range from $260 to $3,500, but this small sample should not be treated as a price forecast. An appraisal should compare works sharing the same medium, dimensions, date, subject, condition, and attribution status. Signature and inscription evidence, restoration, provenance, exhibition history, catalogue references, and the terms under which prices were reported can also affect comparability. Watercolors should be compared with other works on paper rather than assumed to track paintings in another medium. Private transactions and incompletely indexed auctions may fall outside the available public record.

## 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 may be incomplete, so object-specific attribution, condition, provenance, and current comparables remain essential.
