## About Felix Meynet

Félix Meynet is identified across the collected public sources as a French comics artist and author. A French biographical entry gives his birth as 26 November 1961 in Saint-Jeoire-en-Faucigny, although that detail still merits confirmation from a fully readable authority record. His public identity belongs to francophone bande dessinée rather than to a documented fine-art movement. Meynet's site presents Double M as his first series, originally published by Dargaud. Set in the 1960s, it follows ski instructor Mel and Parisian journalist Mirabelle through mountain adventures, with the Savoyard character Fanfoué appearing alongside them. Fanfoué subsequently became the central figure of regional mystery stories set in the Savoy area. These Alpine settings and recurring characters help explain why collectors may encounter Meynet through album-related comic imagery, works on paper, prints, and editions. The available sources establish his principal field and series but do not provide a museum-level career chronology or support association with a formal artistic movement.

## Common works and media

The source pack points most clearly to comic-related material associated with Double M, Fanfoué, and the Savoy-set mystery stories. Auction listings may classify Meynet material as works on paper, prints, editions, paintings, or broader decorative-art categories. Because those labels are broad, each object's technique, dimensions, edition status, signature, condition, and relationship to a published album should be checked individually.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisal should begin with the closest public comparables rather than a page-wide median. For Meynet, compare medium, size, date, series or subject, condition, restoration, signature or inscriptions, edition details, attribution confidence, provenance, catalogue references, and recency. The current Appraisily page contains matched auction records, but its summary exposes inconsistent record counts and broad category labels, so the data are best treated as a starting set rather than a complete market. Realized prices can also reflect different fee conventions. Private sales, incomplete feeds, and later attribution changes may be absent. A defensible opinion therefore depends on the specific object and on comparable lots that genuinely match its format, subject, edition status, and condition.

## 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. Incomplete feeds, private transactions, and unresolved attribution questions may limit coverage.
