## About George Cochran Lambdin

George Cochran Lambdin (1830–1896) was an American painter associated in the collected sources with Victorian-era art. The clearest recurring description of his work is floral painting: English-language corroboration identifies flowers as his best-known subject, while German-language corroboration more specifically notes flower still lifes and roses. Authority records connect the artist to Wikidata and Getty ULAN, helping distinguish him from similarly named makers or later artists. Collectors are therefore most likely to encounter his name on nineteenth-century paintings centered on botanical subjects, particularly arranged blossoms and roses. The present source pack is stronger on identity and subject matter than on training, exhibitions, chronology, or named series, so those details should not be inferred. Appraisily's source input associates 168 auction records with this public artist entity, but each record still requires object-level review before it can be treated as comparable evidence.

## Common works and media

Paintings are the principal documented work type. Floral compositions dominate the available biographical summaries, with flower still lifes and roses specifically identified. The source pack does not substantiate prints, drawings, sculpture, ceramics, posters, editions, or named series, so objects in those categories should not be presented as common works without additional evidence.

## Market and appraisal context

An appraisal should first establish that the object is a painting and that its subject fits Lambdin's documented floral practice, especially flowers, flower still lifes, or roses. Authority matching against the George Cochran Lambdin entity is important because the source pack does not provide signature studies or authentication guidance. Comparable public auction records can then be filtered by work type, subject, sale date, and realized price when those fields are available. The collected evidence does not support a general price trend, a premium for any particular flower, or conclusions about scarcity. Condition, dimensions, provenance, and date may matter in appraisal practice, but this source pack does not establish their artist-specific market effects.

## 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. Source gaps and attribution limits should be reviewed before applying record-level evidence to an individual object.
